Sixteen-year-old Cravalho, who voiced the title character in Disney's Oscar-nominated animated feature "Moana," will play one of the students, Lilette, reported Deadline.

Based on the book of the same name from Michael Sokolove and the life of its subject, Lou Volpe, "Drama High" goes inside the high school drama department in a working-class town. Led by an impassioned teacher, the students and their performances electrify their area.

Katims will write and executive produce with "Hamilton" producer Jeffrey Seller, Michelle Lee and Flody Suarez.
