The Wacky
Adventures
of Lewis and Clark
All
the best parts of the corps of discovery's adventures,
retold
in a rapid-fire comedy style with puppets that will make you laugh
just by looking at them. A delight for kids and history profs alike!
Laugh and learn - It's Historically Hysterical! It's Hysterically
Historical!
Peter and the Wolf
Playing conductor and ringleader, your host gently
guides 8 volunteers in acting out the musical tale.
Original kid-friendly masks and puppets
spice up the performance and Sergei Prokofiev himself
helps introduce the story. Learn
how a cat is like a clarinet, and how listening and teamwork are great tools for making music and telling
stories!
the Grand Canyon
Guided by Ferde Groffe's "Grand Canyon Suite", this interactive story
whisks you away on a musically-driven adventure from the canyon's rim to the river at the very bottom!
You'll be guided by a series of human and puppet characters, and each stop on the way is
a different level of the canyon, with its own unique wildlife and geology. Learn how music can paint a grand
picture,and how a canyon is much more than a hole in the ground!
the Planets
A show in the dark! Cool shadow puppets and light effects accompany Holst's exciting score. Follow the
often silly adventures of young Gustav as he tours the realms of space with quick-footed Mercury, and encounters
the ancient Roman gods each planet is named for.
You'll see things in a whole new way!
The End of the
Beginning*
The sweet
story of the adventures of a snail and an ant as they travel all the way to the end of their tree branch.
Winsome hand puppets and a driving classical score
bring to life favorite
chapters of the book by award-winning author Avi.
A great show for the very young
audience.
