All Wound Up

PKA's show is called "All Wound Up" and they are characters from a Swiss clock. The clock breaks and they have to fix it before Opa (the grandfather clockmaker) comes back.

I love Makin Music and everything (well, maybe not everything) about it. Since we sponsor one of the clubs on campus we are very involved with the show and the kids. For those of you who have no idea what I am talking about, I will fill you in. Makin Music (Singarama or Spring Sing as it is called at other schools) is a student run program. The 6 different social clubs pick directors for their show. The directors come up with a theme and story line. Then they design their own costumes and have them made. They take songs we are all familiar with and write new words that go with their story. They choreograph and block the 7 minute show and then perform it 3 times in one weekend. I usually see the whole show 5 times - dress rehearsal, kids' show on Thursday morning and then all 3 times over the weekend. My children LOVE it!! By the end of the weekend, they can usually perform PKA's whole 7 minute show. This weekend is a wonderful time to see kids use their talents, meet with old friends and just have a good time.
