Music and Stories with Randel McGee and Groark!

Date: Thursday, July 23rd
Time: 11a.m
The hilarious antics and frolicking high energy of Randel McGee's pal Groark the Dragon leaves the audience in stitches. This perfect comedic pair has been together for over 27 years; in fact they have become inseparable (at least on stage). People quickly relate to this loveable yet mischievous dragon as he stumbles through the mishaps of life. Randel McGee is always close by his side to point him in the right direction when he goes off course.
These two also make beautiful music together. With Groark being the only guitar-playing dragon that we know of, this musical duo has people cheering for more and singing for days.
As a seasoned performer, Randel McGee's fast-paced, high-energy blend of stand-up comedy, witty banter, original songs, and hilarious storytelling, appeals to young and old alike around the world.

Children's Summer Reading Program 2009

Boswick the Clown

Thursday, July 16th

Two shows: 11am & 3p.m.

Kids Laugh With Former Ringling Brother's Clown Boswick!
Enjoy the antics of Boswick The Clown, a former Ringling Brother's Circus Clown. The show is a fun way to introduce youngsters to the joy of reading. There will be magic and juggling packaged in comedy.
The Show begins with an explanation of how a circus clown gets ready - by putting his make up in front of the children.
The children then create "the reading circus", where we have wild animals (the children), jugglers (the children), acrobats (the children) and magicians (the children). Very silly, very fun.
Boswick is the star of the Children's movie, "Here Comes The Clown", available on DVD, at over 500 libraries across the U.S. and Canada.
