OVERVIEW

Saint-Saëns’ The Carnival of the Animals brings a parade of animals to life through music and movement, in collaboration with Children’s Dance Theatre. And with a brand-new companion piece by Utah local (and audience favorite!) Andrew Maxfield, there’s even more fun to explore. From the march of the roaring lions to the fluttering birds heard in the flutes, The Carnival of the Animals is a tuneful adventure that’ll have imaginations running wild! Round up your little critters and join us for a paws-itively unforgettable day.

Family Series concerts are roughly 60 minutes—perfect for wiggly bodies under 10—and include hands-on pre-concert activities in the lobby!
