CHICKENS, ORANGES & OTHER FUNNY STUFF

Recently, the Golds put 200 kids attending a YMCA summer camp in front of a microphone and told them to "be funny." The kids told knock-knock jokes, puns, riddles and stories--both old and new. Superb production transforms this recording of the kids' performances into an upbeat audio theater experience that's fun for the whole family. Excellent sound quality, fitting background music, complementary sound effects and clever scripting create a structure for the fast-paced vaudevillian presentation. This production captures kids being kids. It will tickle any listener's funny bone as much as it does the stars of the show. Humor for ages 4-10.
