Al Simmons – Inventive Musical Comedy January 27, 2008

For children ages 5+.
Al last performed at Centrepointe Theatre in the fall of 2002 to a sold-out audience. A creative
genius with the soul of a vaudevillian; Al Simmons is a wizard of one-liners, quick costume
changes, out-of-this-world theatrical props, peculiar musical instruments and other assorted
gadgets.
Al's constantly changing performance style cannot be pigeonholed. He's a one-man cast of
thousands. Make an appointment with Dr. Simmons, the friendly optometrist and his musical eye
chart. Go on safari for exotic feathers with explorer Al. Get into formation for Al's "Cry of the Wild
Goose," complete with quilted feathers and honking shoes. Al magically becomes a Scotsman
who uses a deflating beach ball to create bagpipe-shrills on his harmonica. Amazingly life-like Ma
and Pa puppets come alive at the breakfast table and shout "I Want A Pancake!" And
something's definitely fishy with Al's finny friends – a pyromaniacal piranha and a smokin'
smoked salmon!
