Disney's DESCENDANTS: The Musical Opens Next Week At The Children's Theatre Of Cincinnati

DISNEY'S DESCENDANTS: THE MUSICAL presented by The Children's Theatre of Cincinnati will open next week at the Taft Theatre. The show will run October 8-17, 2022. Tickets are on sale now at https://thechildrenstheatre.com/shows/descendants/.

It is present-day, and in the kingdom of Auradon, all of Disney's beloved heroes and royalty are living happily ever after, safe from the terrifying villains and troublesome sidekicks they have banished to the magic-free Isle of the Lost. That is until Ben, the benevolent teenage son of Belle and King Adam (The Beast), offers a chance of redemption for the troublemaking offspring of the evilest villains. Mal, Evie, Jay, and Carlos - the children of Maleficent, the Evil Queen, Cruella De Vil, and Jafar - are welcomed to Auradon Prep to attend school with the children of their parents' sworn enemies. Now entering a completely foreign world and way of life, the four Villain Kids have a difficult choice to make: should they follow in their parents' wicked footsteps or learn to be good?

As of August 17, 2022, for TCT's 22-23 MainStage shows at the Taft Theatre, there are not any restrictions for entry. Masks are welcome, but not required. Safety is always our highest priority, and we hope you'll treat each other with kindness and respect throughout your theatrical journey with us.
