Aurora Children’s Playhouse Announces St. Patrick’s Day Concert and More
Aurora Theatre announced a Day Children’s Concert with The BorderCollies on March 17 at 10 AM. This "talented band of minstrels is one of the most beloved Celtic bands in the southeast and they will perform a high energy children's concert with a contagious Irish flare. This St. Patrick's Day treat will be packed full of music, heritage and audience participation. There will even be an instrument "petting zoo" to give children a hands-on experience. Be sure to wear green!"
That Puppet Guy, Lee Bryan, returns to Aurora Children's Playhouse on March 24 at 10 AM with his hit show Pinocchio! Recycled thrift store items are given new life in this fantastic, frenetic retelling based on the Collodi classic text. Found-object puppet characters are constructed from various recycled things like kitchen utensils, baskets and tennis rackets. This technique will spark your child’s imagination and promote recycling and reuse of unwanted items. In addition to the found-object puppets, this original one-man "tour de farce" combines authentic Italian music, Commedia-style mask work and plenty of audience participation. View a clip here.
