A New Adventure On Stage: Broward Center Students Will Perform In The Musical

Audiences will join Poppy and her merry band of Trolls in a brand-new musical adventure set after the events of the first film. In the vibrant land of Berganland, trouble brews when a strict foreign emissary threatens to disrupt the cheerful world where the Trolls love to sing, dance and perform. With the threat of being turned into a diplomatic dish by a vengeful Chef looming over them, Poppy and her friends must revamp their show to meet the high expectations.

In the Trolls' incredible journey through the world of theater, they prove that no matter what challenges come their way, the show must go on! This fun-filled, cheeky romp that only the Trolls can deliver features catchy songs, lively dances, uproarious comedy and, of course, plenty of vivid colors.

Guests are invited to come early to participate in free activities for the whole family. Pre-show activities include friendship bracelet arts and crafts, a Trolls-themed selfie station, giveaways and a Trolls costume contest.

Broward Center students will perform in the musical under the direction of Broward Center artist-in-residence Tammy Holder. Students from Nova Southeastern University (NSU) and local public schools are designing and building the set in the fifth year of a collaboration, in which the Broward Center provides a unique, experiential learning opportunity for college students to work under close faculty mentorship and professional industry guidance.

Middle and high school students from Broward County Public Schools are taking part in a Costume Clinic in which they have the opportunity to apply their visual art skills to costume design by meeting with industry professionals, participating in skills building workshops and submitting design ideas for the show.

The Broward Center has become one of the foremost creative laboratories for the creation of family musicals. In a longstanding collaboration with industry leader Music Theater International (MTI), they have piloted for development age-appropriate adaptations of Beetlejuice, Jr., Matilda, Jr., Something Rotten, Jr! and Best of Broadway, Jr. Revue.

This year’s program is sponsored by Florida Theatrical Association and Funding Arts Broward. DreamWorks Theatricals Trolls The Musical, Jr. is based on DreamWorks Trolls 2024, DreamWorks Animation, LLC. All Rights Reserved.

At the sensory-inclusive performance, guests will enjoy pre-show activities with Young At Art and a post-show meet and greet with the cast.
