I Am Moana!

 

Moana has been part of our family for a long time: the music, the love for the ocean, the movie...

And so when we found out that EDA was doing "Moana Jr." for one of the summer camps this year, y'all were ecstatic!

Aidan, you wanted to be Maui or Shiny the Crab; but you were pleased to be in the ensemble, and to be one of the killer coconuts! ...you were less than thrilled because your character dies again.

Julia, you wanted to be Moana...and you were cast as young Moana! 

Sure, neither of you got exactly what you wanted, but that is the magic of EDA: you are part of the team no matter what- there are no small parts- and you be the best you you can be.

And you guys soared! 

Aidan,  you got to do some amazing slow-motion fighting against Maui and sang wonderfully, especially during "You're Welcome!"

Julia, you loved being center stage for a bit as Young Moana, you did a magical job of transitioning to "Regular Moana" and then excelled as part of the ensemble!

You guys  came through getting a little sick during production- at one point BOTH Moanas were out sick! But the show must go on! And it did!

You and your friends and co-campers were amazing!
