The performance will include lots of Orff instruments, singing, movement acting and some simple costumes. This is a more traditional Orff performance. Our maximum number of students is 50, so the first schools will be chosen. Email cherylbaker15@gmail.com if you have any questions or want to reserve your spot while you get all the forms completed.
