Tuggeranong Arts Centre’s Make a Mini Musical program with Mr. Tim and Mrs. Nath is an explosion of creative joy, for kids who love making up plays and songs!
Giving kids the unique opportunity to co-create and perform an original musical in only 5 days, participants devise the story, lyrics, and music, write the script, choreograph stage movement, and make props and backdrops for a public performance on the final day. The music, created by Mr. Tim and Mrs. Nath alongside the students, is given to the kids to sing-along with at home and keep as a memento of their creation. This engaging, high energy program for students aged 8-13 years, is running at Tuggeranong Arts Centre from January 15 – 19, 2024. The program takes up to 25 students as is open for booking now! No experience is required – just an attitude to participate in the creation and development of the musical.
About Tim and Nath
Tim & Nath have created a musical program at TAC for the last six years, producing four professional children’s musicals as well as several mini musicals. The most recent 5-day school holiday program The Emporium of Wow Zoobarooba, was in January 2023. Tim and Nathalie Bevitt are passionate artists and educators with a vision for people to play together to unleash their limitless creativity. They have been working together in their performing arts business ‘Mr Tim Enterprises’ since 2011 and have been involved in the Canberra community during this time with festivals, workshops and events run throughout the city. Their popular school workshop “Extravaganza Program” gets students ready for performances in only 4 days for mind blowing school concerts and they have written numerous school songs and compositions for a whole wide range of events. They created the ‘Mr Tim Family Choir’ for adults and kids to sing along together in 2013 as well as their adult choir ‘Unexpected Harmony’. Tim runs a children’s rock band called Mr Tim & The Fuzzy Elbows which have recorded several albums over the years. In 2019 Tim was awarded a Churchill Fellowship to investigate ‘Intergenerational play for creating cohesive communities’ and both he and Nathalie will be traveling overseas in 2023 to complete it.
