The Cutest Marching Band You’ll Ever See!
Don your hats and grab your batons, Tiny Players! It’s time for a trip to River City, IA to meet the fast-talking Harold Hill in The Music Man KIDS. Along the way on their theatrical adventure, students will learn fundamental performance skills with fantastically fun character and movement-based games! Then, as kids grow their confidence and make new theatre friends, they will begin to put their new abilities on display by learning songs from The Music Man KIDS. And at the end of the whole experience, it’s time to don their costumes and bask in the limelight with a fully-produced musical production, performed alongside the Studio’s Youth Players.
Tiny Players classes are for the kids who are always singing, cannot stop dancing, and love “playing pretend” to the bottom of their hearts. Get ready to see them light up onstage at 6th Street Studio!
About The Music Man KIDS: When professional trickster and travelling “salesman” Harold Hill arrives in River City, Iowa, he vows to unite the town’s youngsters into a marching band, taking payments from the locals for uniforms and musical instruments. The problem? Hill does not know a lick of music and runs the risk of being outed by the town’s librarian and part-time piano teacher, Marian. The plot further thickens when the con man falls for Marian, who continues to believe in him despite his scheming. Will Hill follow through with his plans…or will his heart persuade him to do the right thing?

If your child becomes ill with COVID and develops symptoms: an isolation period of at least 24 hours is required. Your child may return to class after 24 hours if they no longer have a fever (without the use of fever-reducing medications) and if their symptoms are improving.
