“Come one, come all, to a musical zoo. Hear the sounds all around: it’s a neat thing to do!” ARC Youth Dance Company and the Symphony are our guides through Saint Saëns' enchanted music where a menagerie of animals from lions and kangaroos to turtles and elephants spring into being through music and dance.
