If, after going
to this circus,
your kids want
to join, you
just might be so
inclined. This
Saturday the
Orchestra’s of
Pasadena present
their popular
youth program -
Musical
Circus:
America's Music,
complete with a
musical petting
zoo. And just
what is the main
attraction at
this big top
event? For the
opening act it
is all the
instruments;
kids can touch,
feel, blow, hit,
strum, bang,
toot - you name
it – anything
goes as they try
to coax sound
out of 100
various
instruments,
each
representing a
different
orchestral
family. It is
virtually wall
to wall
instruments for
this first part
of the Circus.
The second part
is more wall to
wall fun as you
are treated to a
the musical and
comedy stylings
of Razzle Bam
Boom, featuring
the duo of Mark
Beckwith and
Obediah Thomas,
whom your
children may
know from an
original themed
show at their
school or
community
center. Razzle
Bam Boom
combines music,
audience
participation
and of course
comedy to create
a unique blend
of a show which
audiences of any
age will love,
but it is
designed
especially for
budding music
enthusiasts aged
10 and younger.
The circus is
hosted by Greggy
Dee, a West
Coast phenomenon
appearing in,
“Play it Safe!
The Rockn’ Roll
Safety Show,” a
new live stage
performance
geared towards
educating
youngsters about
safety
awareness. A
recording artist
and songwriter,
he also performs
on his own in
“The Greggy Dee
Show.”
What a great
experience for
kids to be able
to not only
enjoy music
meant for their
ears, but to
actually have a
hand in making
it. Could your
child be the
next Mozart or
Beethoven? Run
away and join
the circus… it
will be music to
your ears.
