The Magic of Communication (Grades K - 12)

The Magic of Communication is an assembly program which reinforces state curriculums, and will help your students to develop an appreciation of, and a critical attitude towards, varied forms of communication. This unique program is oriented towards elementary and middle school students and is comprised of three 15-20 minute acts:

Act 1: Non-Verbal Communication
Featuring juggling, mime, and the live performance of an ancient Aboriginal instrument, the opening act is a whirlwind of movement, color, and music. Topics covered: How is music used to convey emotions and tell stories? How do you use body language and facial expressions in your everyday life?

Act 2: Verbal Communication
A live, mock television commercial helps students see through the verbal techniques used by advertisers to make you remember, and buy, their products. Later in this act an audience volunteer helps present a classic magic illusion while receiving instructions almost entirely in Spanish.

Act 3: Communications Technology
From the printing press, to the telephone, to the early days of radio, act three uses stunning magic to demonstrate and examine how innovations in technology have allowed mankind to communicate over vast distances in space and time.  Scott's unique blend of talents combine with audience participation and a soundtrack of world music to bring students closer to an understanding of their own abilities to communicate with each other and the world.
