Prepare to be transported into a world of birch bark canoes, paddles, hairy adventures, and lots of laughter with Madame Diva and Micah the young voyageur! The Steinbach Arts Council invites families and children to Zing-e-Zing! on Friday, January 26th, 2024.
This performance is geared toward young audiences and fun for the whole family. Enjoy singing along and tapping your feet to the festive melodies of the fiddle, while listening to charming and playful stories of the voyageur era. Join the adventures of Madame Diva and Micah, and meet Perseverance, the tenacious little turtle, all while singing songs from yesteryear.
Performing Arts Coordinator Tara Schellenberg is excited to bring this family-friendly show to Steinbach.
“This show is a wonderful way to bring our local French and English-speaking communities together. Whether you’re fluent in French or English, Madame Diva’s expert use of ‘Frenglish’ ensures that every member of the audience is included and engaged!”
