Razzmatazz for Kids
Weaving stories and songs together, Razzmatazz for Kids has been delighting young audiences for 25 years with their original children’s music and traditional songs. Audiences sing, laugh, do motions, and clap to ever-changing rhythms in this musically rich performance. Volunteers will get the chance to play rhythm instruments and make little wooden “limberjacks” dance. These East Coast Music Award / 3-Time Music Nova Scotia Award-winning musicians bring their high-energy show to your school or community in English or French! The English show includes one or two songs in French (explained in English) reflecting Thomas’ Acadian heritage, and a Hebrew song reflecting Sandy’s Jewish roots. The French concert is composed of all French songs. There is a Bilingual version of either concert. All shows are customizable to reflect the specific requirements of the school.
