The Paper Bag Players: We Start to Sing!

America’s beloved children’s theater company, THE PAPER BAG PLAYERS, has been creating imaginative worlds from paper and cardboard since 1958. Their joyful 66th season show, WE START TO SING! bursts with zany stories, audience participation, sing-along songs, foot-stomping dances, larger-than-life characters, and art brought to life on a giant easel. It’s a funny, friendly, and thrilling hour of theater – perfect for children ages 3 through 9, perfect for everyone! In “Rise and Shine,” the sun wakes up and prepares for work, punching in as the moon punches out. “We Start to Sing” introduces the cast with a glorious song and dance about the start of a new day. Bowling pins try to make the best of their situation in “That’s the Life of a Bowling Pin”. Two friends on a fishing trip get more than they bargained for in “A Day on the Lake”, and “Ants in My Pants” invites the entire audience to participate in a song and dance to help in a tricky picnic situation. The hour is rounded out with flying pizzas, a game called “Spin-A-Dance,” a girl who rides a whale all the way home, and much more. It’s all wrapped up in The Paper Bag Players’ signature paper and cardboard costumes and props that inspire the imagination.
