Once Upon a Symphony: The Three Little Pigs
Dec 9, 2023-Feb 10, 2024
Overview
When the Three Little Pigs are sent out into the world by their father, each chooses to build a house using a different material. With the Big Bad Wolf on the prowl, the pigs are quick to learn whether straw, sticks or bricks can best withstand his ferocious strength! This story explores, through music, how the combination of courage, hard work and individual talent leads to success. Perfect for ages 3-5.
