Product Description:

A vibrant musical set in Africa, Tuishi Pamoja (Swahili for 'we want to live together') has a great message about diversity and friendship and creates a wonderfully uplifting and colourful spectacle as an end of year show.

Are stripes really stupid? And is it true that you can't talk sense with animals that have spots? Important questions for young giraffe Raffi and Zea the zebra, whose herds, although they live side by side, consider each other worthless.

Giraffe and zebra children are not allowed to associate with each other but - when lions attack - Raffi and Zea are separated from their herds and find themselves thrown together. At first they maintain their hostility towards each other but with the help of some smart meerkats they learn to be friends. When it's safe to return to their herds, they must ‘face the music’ and deal with with the prejudice of their parents.

The Director's Pack contains everything you need to stage a successful show including the Director's Book with director's overview, cast list, synopsis, notes, script, score, lyrics, helpful staging suggestions and performance licence application form. The included Enhanced CD contains full vocal demonstrations of the songs for the children to learn and separate instrumental backing tracks for performance use (no pianist required), along with printable files of the pupil script and lyric sheets (which allows you to print off as many copies as you require).

Suitable for ages 8 to 11.
