Today for my “Teaching Tip Tuesday” I would actually like to ask for tips from you!
I’m in charge of helping find a musical for our homeschool group to perform this spring. I’ve been procrastinating on this responsibility because I don’t even know where to start!
Our group will be directed by a very talented recent college grad. The kids who will be participating will be ages five to 12 (of course they are ALL brilliant children!). We need something simple and not too complicated (is that redundant?)
Have you done anything that you would recommend (or not recommend)? Any good websites out there that you would suggest that I check out?
If I get my act together, I’ll come back later and post a tip from my house to yours! In the meantime, any info on musicals will be greatly appreciated (we’ll even put your name in the program under “those we wish to thank because this musical could not have happened without you”)!

“Get in the Boat,” I think that’s the name, is a production our children’s classes did 5 or so years ago. I have googled but am not seeing it. It was written by Randy Gill and, I think, Jeff Walling. You’ve got speaking parts for Noah and his family and then you can have any number of animals to get on the boat. It was really cute. The set was a big flat boat front. And the animal costumes can be as simple or elaborate as desired.
If you’re interested, I’ll email Randy and ask how to get a hold of a copy to review and decide. Good luck, or as it is said in show business, “break a leg.”
