Programs

The Wright Brothers Flight                        Suggested grade level:  K - 8

This year we celebrate 100 years of flight! RAZZLE RAM BOOM uses song and humor to present the facts of Orville and Wilbur's history changing quest. During their 45-minute musical performance, Mark Beckwith and Obediah Thomas assemble on stage their own half-scaled, 20-Coot wingspan model of the original "Flyer". In addition to catchy the turn-of-the (previous) century tunes and age appropriate comedy, the show teaches lessons in science and history. But beyond academics and music, this program shows how the Wright Brothers persevered in the face of' peer pressure, opposition, and competition. The show is a great lesson in teamwork and staying on a course of action.

The History of Rock'n Roll                         Suggested grade level:  K - 5

The roots of Rock and Roll music go back much further than the Beatles, Little Richard or Bill Haley. Through music performance, humor, and audience participation, RAZZLE BAM BOOM explores the early cultural influences that lead to this 20th century phenomenon. With musical performances that range from the Blues to Boogic-woogie, from Ragtime to Rap, this program is a great blend of education, culture, and just plain fun.

200 Years of American Music                     Suggested grade level:  K - 8

From Stephen Foster to George M. Cohan. from Fats Waller to John Philip Sousa. BECKWITH  & THOMAS incorporate their own zany brand of humor as they sing and play their way back through time and across America. Bluegrass, Gospel, Hawaiian, Western, Jazz, Blues, Folk, and Rock 'n Roll are performed with guitar, trumpet, banjo, and vocals. Audiences enjoy doing Cajun Hambonin', singing contests, and watching surprise guests from the audience dance the Charleston or the Jitterbug.
