A stern talking to: Mulan’s mother, Fa Li, right, played by Josey Kralik, leans in to talk to Mulan, played by Olivia Fanshawe, after arriving late to her appointment to get dolled up for the matchmaker. Over 100 Farnsworth Middle School students are in the cast and crew of Disney’s “Mulan Jr.,” which is directed by Steve Suriano with choreography by Abby Todd, and musical direction by Terri Mewhorter.

With her lucky cricket in her hand, Mulan, played by Olivia Fanshawe, gets beautified so she can be accepted by the Emperor, the matchmaker, to be married. “Mulan Jr.” will be performed on Friday and Saturday, March 6 and 7, at 7 p.m. A “Princess matinee” on Sunday, March 8, at 2 p.m. will feature photo opportunities for “little princesses” to pose with Disney princesses and cast members. Tickets are $8 or four for $30.
