Susan Peak’s Stupendously Wonderful Music Show  
Susan PeakSongs range from instructive to just plain fun; from ladybugs to glaciers, you’ll learn something while playing and singing along!”  

Children's show at 2 -3 pm   Free drinks for the kids!


A one hour interactive extravaganza of silliness and song. Audience members become part of the show as they find themselves dancing, clapping, playing percussion, and maybe even barking along with the music! Susan’s songs encompass a range of styles including rock, folk, blues and reggae. In addition to her sparkling originals you will hear some old and new favorites, all designed to keep your feet movin’ and your spirits high. Guaranteed to be a great cure for the winter blues!
