Arts on the Horizon: Drumming with Dishes: The Holiday Edition

by Micaela

Written by David Kilpatrick
Original Direction by Jennifer Furlong

Geared towards children ages 2-6

Get your little ones ready for a holiday show that will have them giggling, engaged, and is the perfect running time!  Drumming With Dishes: The Holiday Edition takes place in a special kitchen, where two friends cook up joyful music together. From a pasta-box Christmas tree to dreidels spinning on pots and pans, these friends (and their live guitar accompanist) bring many of your favorite holiday songs to life like you've never seen before! This whimsical production is a 35-minute interactive, non-verbal show, which features two adult actors and a musician. 

Artistic Director Michelle Kozlak states, "My hope is that this performance of Drumming with Dishes: The Holiday Edition will inspire children to find music all around them in everyday
objects.  Creative play and exploration are so essential to a child's development at this age; we hope their imaginative adventures will continue long after the performance has ended."
