NYICFF Rocks: Musical Shorts (2020)
Toe-tapping and seat-swaying are definitely encouraged in this spirited global tour of musical shorts. Bop alongside ShalaBonBon’s pop-inspired Japanese beat, swing with Cabaret-era jazz in the wacky I Have a Little Cactus, and get squirrely with excitement following Maestro’s lead. And we promise, no snoozy lullabies here! Full lineup to be announced soon.
