Three Screens- Let’s Be Friends

October 16, 2015

Have you ever thought about being a doctor or nurse someday, so you could help people who are hurting? You could even be called a healer, because doctors and nurses actually help people heal.

Your body isn’t the only thing that can get hurt and need to heal. We’ve all had our feelings hurt too, and we’ve all hurt someone else’s feelings. There has to be a better way, right? There is! We can all stop hurting others, and actually be healers! We don’t have to wait and become a doctor or nurse.

WE can help to heal people who are hurting inside. How? We can all be friends!

Mad Science-“Up, Up and Away”

January 15^th, 2016

This 45-minute presentation is geared toward theaters and large school groups in an auditorium setting. A larger and flashier show than the ‘Standard’ show, this event will capture the audiences’ interest and show how exciting science can be. Included in the show are a variety of eye-popping demonstrations and experiments. There will be plenty of opportunity for hands-on audience participation in this event. Some of the topics and demonstrations include the three states of matter, air pressure (using the Madgeburg Sphere), a Hot Air Balloon, the Mad Science Hovercraft, a giant size vortex generator and finally the Big Sneeze demonstration. This show is very visually exciting, has lots of audience participation and works very well for medium to large size audiences. Watch the short video! >>

Opera Works for You

Feb 12^th, 2016

If you doubt that a program about opera could be one of our funniest and most popular offerings, you haven’t seen “Opera Works.” We guarantee that your students will never think opera is “stuffy” (nor will any misguided adults in the audience) once OperaWorks presents its light-hearted mix of great singing, slapstick, and audience participation. With excerpts from “The Barber of Seville,” “Porgy and Bess,” “La Traviata,” and “Don Giovanni”—not to mention some conducting and musical help from the audience—the assembly offers a wonderful opportunity for students to develop a lasting appreciation of opera.
