Join the fun!  Award-winning duo Razzmatazz for Kids gets the audience singing, hopping, and laughing to their playful, interactive children's songs.  Combining music with comedy, Sandy Greenberg and Thomas Cormier spread joy to young audiences, entertaining both kids and their grown-ups. In the hilarious song “I Like Funny Noises”, the audience is mesmerized as Thomas transforms himself into silly versions of animals, and the kids imitate everything he does.  In the song, “Going to my Grandma’s”, which was aired on Sesame Street for six years, Sandy invites the audience to hug themselves or someone they love, inspired by her grandma’s hugs. The song “Hippity Hop” invites the kids to hop like bunnies, frogs, and kangaroos. With acoustic guitar and vocal harmonies, this show creates joy and builds feelings of connection and inclusion. The show’s finale includes all the kids being invited to join the train that chugs its way around the theatre.

Razzmatazz for Kids has won an East Coast Music Award and four Music Nova Scotia Awards.  Their tours have brought them to festivals, special events, and schools in Canada, the United States, France, and England. In Ottawa, Razzmatazz for Kids was invited to perform for students in the presence of the Prime Minister’s wife and the First Lady of the United States. Symphony Nova Scotia has welcomed Razzmatazz as a featured performer.  Sesame Street created a music video of their song Going to my Grandma’s. Razzmatazz has performed at folk and children’s festivals including the Stan Rogers Folk Festival and the Lunenburg Folk Harbour Festival in Nova Scotia.  They have performed at Ottawa Children’s Festival de la jeunesse, Stratford’s SpringWorks, Burlington’s Sound of Music Festival, and the Royal Manitoba Winter Fair.
