Moana @ Fritz Hedges Waterway Park

One day I’ll know šŸŒŠ How far I’ll go šŸŒŠ

Catch me on any random day puttering around the house and Iā€™ll likely be singing ā€œHow Far Iā€™ll Goā€ from Moana. And Iā€™ve done it since I first watched the movie six years ago. It makes me feel unstoppable.

Thereā€™s not a single song on this soundtrack that disappoints (I mean, Lin-Manuel Miranda). This movie never fails to give me chills, whether itā€™s the tentative first notes in ā€œHow Far Iā€™ll Go,ā€ Moanaā€™s piercing last line in ā€œI Am Moana,ā€ or the hushed, levitating hum behind her monologue in ā€œKnow Who You Are.ā€ An unforgettable scene.

Even if youā€™re still humming Moana lyrics on the daily, I bet you havenā€™t seen it under the open summer sky. This Friday night, Moana will screen for U Districtā€™s Summer Movies By the Bay at Fritz Hedges Waterway Park. The event kicks off at 7 pm with live musicā€”for Moana, the featured artist is Si-Ihn Ro

So grab a cozy sweater and settle in for an epic, mythical, heartwarming adventure as the sun slowly sets over the water. Thatā€™s what this series is all about: exploring the ideas ofĀ freedom,Ā identity, andĀ self-explorationĀ associated with water andĀ the open ocean, andĀ MoanaĀ fits the lineup perfectly.
