One Week: Annual Family Concert

November 12th, 2023

Bring the whole family! It’s time for CCS’s annual interactive family concert. The performance begins with local composer Charlie Barnett’s energetic and participatory Give Me the Orchestra, which introduces the audience to each section of the orchestra. We’ll continue with our screening and live musical performance of One Week, sure to bring plenty of laughs for grown-ups and kids alike. This event is created with our youngest audience members in mind, and will delight audiences of all ages. Join us as we celebrate CCS with a rollicking performance One Week, with an original orchestral score by acclaimed silent film composer Andrew Earle Simpson.

Plan to arrive early! 30 minutes before the concert starts, an instrument petting zoo will be held throughout the concert hall and lobby, giving your whole family a hands-on opportunity to get to know our artists and their instruments!
