Simply the Best School Assemblies!

School Assembly - (Prices apply ONLY! to school shows on week days)

Text Box: Michelle S., Summit Academy, Elgin, IL—“The performance was absolutely wonderful! The comments I received from other staff ranged from ‘This was the best assembly ever’ to ‘a perfect blend for all ages from 2 year olds to 8th grade’ and ‘I could barely keep from dancing in my seat!’ Your assembly was a crowd pleaser for all of our students. A tough feat, I assure you! Thank you for such an educational and fun assembly. We wish you all the best!”

Your students will love our blend of percussion and steel drums (a tropical melodic percussion instrument) and thrilling special effects in this jubilant musical educational performance. Both packages offer the following:


We play songs students love including: Jump in the Line, Day-Oh, Under the Sea, Lion Sleeps Tonight & Hot-Hot-Hot

Interdisciplinary school curriculum to use the week prior to build on the fun and learning

Blue Man – like percussion numbers demonstrate how the steel drum is made & what makes it a melodic percussion instrument

Discussion of the Caribbean islands, particularly Trinidad, West Indes where the steel drum originated

Guaranteed to be the assembly the students and teachers will talk about all year long
