Hola! We hope you'll find everything you need from us right here. If not, just ask.
When The Harmonica Pocket takes the stage, audiences don't just sit back to be entertained. The show delivers highly-interactive experiences that get children (and their grownups) singing and moving in their seats.
With swinging story-songs, hula hoops, and a suitcase of props, The Harmonica Pocket mixes up Music, Dance, and Imagination Games into a gigglish jambalaya. Audiences are invited to become a tree on a windy day, flex creative writing skills by dreaming up lyrics to songs, and make hilarious sounds as they toss around an imaginary “Ball of Nothing.”
The acoustic show is sprinkled with wah-wah guitar, ukulele, jaw harp, washboard percussion, harmonicas, and an invented instrument called a “Hinklehorn” – part kazoo, part plumbing fixtures. Zany skits, dance, hula hoop, spinning flags, and a waltz with a pumpkin (in season) wrap Harmonica Pocket shows up with a thoughtful, playful bow.
Themed shows include “Get
Loose With Dr. Seuss,” “Singing
Thanksgiving,” and “Ladybug
One,” and contain gentle ecological and pro-literacy messages. 
The Harmonica Pocket has performed for busloads of children and adults
in theaters, classrooms, libraries, and festivals nationally and internationally.
