The
Sound of Music: Decebember 18th, 2013 ( 12 pm performance)
The
Sound of Music is sheer theatrical magic in this special production
of the classic tale of courage, optimism and family togetherness. Let
the Ensemble lead your class in singing your favourite musical
numbers. (lyrics provided)Cost:$5.00
The
Radio Show:Friday February 14, 2014 (11:30 am performance)
Dance-maker
Kyle Abraham is seriously charismatic and hailed as " one of the
brightest creative talents to emerge in New Your City" in the
last four years. Equal parts power and grace, he commands the stage,
connecting directly with the audience. Winner of the Bessie Award,
The Radio Show delves into the loss of voice (both of his father and
a defunct urban radio station) with authenticity, heart and humour.
The seven dancers are riveting, sizzling lines of energy sinuous yet
funky, elegantly articulated. The movement is as loose as street
dance but as precise as ballet. With a classic soul/hip-hop score and
elastic, electric dance. The Radio Show is an emotional ride that is
operating on all frequencies. Cost: $5.00
Humour
and Music with the NAC Orchestra: Monday March 31, 2014 (10:00 am)
Whoever
said that classical music had to be serious? Just in time for April
Fools' Day, Alain Turdel and the NAC Orchestra will take you on a
romp through the funny side of music. With the help of the hilarious
antics of award-winning soprano Natalie Choquette, explore the music
composers who had a well-developed funny bone like Rosiin (Barber of
Seville Overture) and Haydn ( Farwell Symphony). Cost: $5.00
