Primary School ShowsFiddlesticks have been exclusively contracted to the QLD Arts Council for five years, touring their shows throughout Queensland in both Primary and Secondary Areas. Before
seeking accreditation in Queensland, they toured New Zealand performing in schools for
15 years. Our shows are always been enthusiastically received.
Switched On (Primary School)YEAR P TO 3 (junior version) Bush dance gets re-vamped to give true-blue Aussie music culture street 'cred'. Fiddlesticks use electric violins, electronic effects and a loop station, with typical bush instruments like the washboard, spoons, saw, clapsticks, bush base and lagerphone to open up the possibilities of music meets technology. With a dynamic approach to the age-old barn dance, Fiddlesticks teach funky steps, cool tunes, storytelling and musical innovation through a vibrant mix of music, technology, song and dance. Students are kept enthralled from beginning to end by this high energy performance. Switched On and QAC's Teacher Resource Kits complement Essential Learnings in The Arts (dance, music, drama) and SOSE (time, continuity, change, culture and identity).
