Description:
Which ever letter of the alphabet you are on, it is important
to think GREEN. Greg Cooney has been using crazy original songs and stories for 30 years to teach people the importance of

using words like Groovy.

Program Name:
Musical Mystery Tour
Have Fun With Music.
Greg uses songs and stories that will get the audience up and involved with the performance.
Music is a mystery. What makes us tap our toes and sing along? It
doesn't matter. Kids will just get involved and have fun.
During the show, Greg introduces fun facts about a few
songs and how music is made. The show will begin with a few songs and stories, but will quickly move into musical action.
Greg performs a musical "SHOW and TELL" of instruments made from items not normally used for music making. PVC pipes, wrenches,
plastic drink bottles, and things found in the kitchen sink. After the rafters ring and the ground shakes with laughter and
fun, everyone settles down for a quiet family browse through the library and a calm ride home with the parents. (If the parents
aren't too wound up)
Comments:
After the show, Greg invites the audience up to the musical instrument petting zoo and touch
table where the kids can take turns looking at and handling a few of the instruments.
Audience: 4 - 11 and ENTIRE FAMILY
Program Name:
Earth Shares
Water, Land, and Air
Description: Greg uses fun and heart warming songs, stories and demonstrations that encourage young people
to respect the earth and each other.
What goes up, must come down.
What is thrown on the ground effects us all around.
It all flows down through the River, down to the Bay and out to the great Wide Ocean, where it rises
up again.
If we learn to take care of our earth, our children might still be able to enjoy it in the future.
