Jay performs this show with musical colleague, Mike Morris. This is a concert of songs and stories with a seasonal, Halloween focus. We bring a backdrop, which looks like a colorful, haunted tree (about 8 feet tall, and 5 feet wide). We also set up our state-of-the-art sound system, which can handle any size room.
The songs presented in the show are all participatory. Most of the pieces are funny, and they are about scary things, rather than being scary themselves.
We do the classic Monster Mash, of course, as well as a song about making friends with your skeleton, one about a guy who turned into a pumpkin after eating too much pie, and of course, our love song to a mummy, 'Are You Loathsome Tonight'. We also include our hip-hop song ‘I’m Not Scared’, plus the 'Scary Hokey Pokey'. All designed to get everybody singing along, even you!
We also tell kids that we think it's okay to get scared sometimes – everybody does – and that talking to someone - a friend, a parent, or a teacher - can really help. Scary things become less scary when we share them, and especially when we sing about them!
