1-2-3 Andrés
Virtual Theatre Kids: 1-2-3 Andrés | January 17 – January 30, 2022
Part of the Around the Americas Series, this Theatre Kids online performance is recommended for students, Pre-K through Third Grade
Andrés and Christina are the Latin GRAMMY-winning music duo 123 Andrés. Their catchy songs and lively concerts get the whole family dancing and learning, in Spanish and English. Fast-paced and silly on the surface, these four 15-minute episodes are a great way to get kids interested in rhythms and instruments from around Latin America.
In each episode, travel with Andrés and Christina to meet a musician in a different country of Latin America – Argentina, Mexico, Guatemala, and Puerto Rico. Each musician teaches them about the style of music they play, and includes three interactive challenges that students can do by themselves, with their class or with family members, all using household objects. Practice a rhythm, learn a dance step, or create an instrument.
Access to the performance is $50 per classroom (11 to 50 students) and $10 per homeschool group (1 to 10 students). Fees will be waived for Title I schools and qualifying nonprofit organizations.
