The Drum

Grades: 2-8

Performance time: approximately 20 minutes

A Mini-Musical based on a Tale of Generosity for Unison and 2-Part Voices

All children have dreams, just like Jordan’s dream of one day having a drum. Watch as generosity helps everyone’s dreams come true! Starting with just a stick, Jordan’s day becomes quite magical.

A stick turns into bread; to children it is fed. Then I am given a pot, and I think "Why not?" It replaced the one beyond repair, and I got a new coat to wear! And amazingly you know, of course, in return for it---I got a horse!

Jordan’s last adventure of the day involves a wedding party made up of musicians. Do you think his/her dream will finally come true? Don’t miss this charming mini-musical based on a wonderful folk tale from India.
