What if the band was the band? 🤔
Meet HEARTSONG a musical where young performers become the instruments themselves! 🤯
Yes, they become instruments!

A one-of-a-kind musical about teamwork, big choices, and finding your voice. Each participant will have an important, fun role in the story, and the creators of the musical will cast and direct the ensemble. We will read and discuss the script, block and rehearse scenes, learn music, improvise, learn simple choreography and create costumes and set pieces. With focus, generosity and support of each other, performers will learn skills to confidently and collaboratively portray their characters. A final "sharing" for friends and family, a script-in-hand presentation, will take place in the main theater with simple theatrical elements.

HEARTSONG, an hour-long children's musical by Barbara Blatner and Lin Snider, tells of a band of musical instrument middle schoolers who make music by listening to each other’s hearts. When the opportunity arises for one of the band members to gain fame and fortune at the expense of the others, the instruments have to choose between "me" and "we." HEARTSONG asks: What are the lures and realities of being a "star," the consequences of disrespecting and bullying each other, and affirms the joys of collaborating with those of different backgrounds.
