Rollicking time
Children enjoyed themselves thoroughly at a musical programme held recently
The night belonged to the young and when they took the centre stage, twisted and twirled to some of the most familiar rhymes, it seemed new meaning was added to the songs. Musical extravaganza and story showcase, put together by Sunjaya Sukriti Foundation Trust at Good Shepherd Auditorium, in the City, last week, drew a large number of children — old and young — who danced to the hilt unmindful of their surrounding.The musical was just as popular with the older folks as well. Each of the performances were unique and stood out for their originality. Krishna Iyer and her troupe’s splendid show kept the audience strapped to their seats. Cheering, laughter and a riot of applauses came uninterrupted. The story-tellers kept the audience engrossed. While, Jeeva Raghunath’s stories left the children asking for more, the group from Malaysia, Jumping Jelly Beans, narrated the good old Little Red Riding Hood’ with dramatic scenes and funny makeovers. This added that extra zing to the evening. The troupe did well to blend Kannada, Marathi and popular Bollywood songs. This mix had the audience asking for more.
Even their favourite cartoon characters, cartoons and TV shows were no match to the rollicking time these kids had. Nine-year-old Bhavesh said, “I have never been a part of anything so exciting. It was rocking.” The cheering only got louder and lasted long after the event was over. Ten-year-old Riya said that she loved ‘Zelda the Zebra’ and the bam bam bhole song the most.
Shivani, who brought along her nine-year-old daughter and 12-year-old son, thought this was the best gift she could give her children. Her daughter Rohini said, “It’s my birthday today and this is my best gift.” Sheetal Sukhija

Here's the review from the HINDU
A treat for children
Staff Reporter

The show began with a story by Shanthini Venugopal and Cinzia Ciaramocoli of Jumping Jelly Beans theatre company. The story of Little Red Ridinghood, although modified for children, was a success. It was not just a passive event, but also an interactive session where even the parents chimed. After entertaining the children with the story, they were treated to a sing-along programme. The children sang and danced to the tunes played by the band live onstage. Many popular rhymes and songs such as “Hickery, Dickery, Dock” and “Old McDonald had a farm” were played. Mahesh Dawar, a parent, said: “The show is just amazing. This is better than taking a child to a movie.” This was followed by a rock show. The big hit was the song from Taare Zameen Per, “Bum Bum Bole...”
