Carnival of the Animals: An All-School Revue featuring the music of Camille Saint-Saens
Arranged by Ruth Artman, script and lyrics by Mary Kay Beall.
Join in the camaraderie of leaping kangaroos, singing donkeys, waltzing elephants and a bevy of other beasts as you bring to life the music of Camille Saint-Saens with a humorous updated narrative by Mary Kay Beall. Created for elementary ages in unision and simple 2-part vocal arrangements, this delightful musical can be produced with minimal set, singers and costumes or, if resources permit, as a lavish production involving the whole school.
What better way is there for children to experience the joys of classical music than through the excitement of a big show! A creative teacher could easily integrate this carnival of songs into the daily music curriculum and finish off the semester with a polished full performance. 30-min performace for grades 1-6.
