Carnival of the Animals Reimagined

Squawk, stamp, and splash with Camille Saint-Saëns’ Carnival of the Animals! The beloved classic gets a whimsical update with creative new elements for each animal including narration, choregraphed movement, dance, and artwork. Plus, George Gershwin’s Walking the Dog will open the show. A roaring delight for the entire family, this hour-long show is a feast for the senses!

Join us from 2PM to 2:40PM for the instrument petting zoo in the Telus Studio Theatre, generously provided by Tom Lee Music. Learn and interact with a variety of instruments with guidance from our wonderful volunteers.
