Norman Foote and his puppets bring their Halloween Howl to the Massey Theatre stage Oct. 24.

Music, comedy and costumes are rolling up together in one big bundle of family-focused fun.

Massey Theatre is playing host to Norman Foote’s Halloween Howl on Saturday, Oct. 24.

Foote will be sharing the stage with the “Very Scary Big Voice Orchestra,” his wall of costumed singers, and he brings props and large puppets into the fun.

“He has received international acclaim for his songwriting, outrageous props and offbeat sense of humour,” a press release notes. “This stage show is uniquely Norman and is innovative both musically and visually.”

Foote will be going into school classes prior to the show and getting local kids to work with him on songs. The result: a choir of some 180 children who will perform onstage with him.

“The show is interactive and hilarious, with great melodies and positive messages for kids,” the release notes.

Halloween Howl is on Saturday, Oct. 24 at 2 p.m. Tickets are $15 regular, $12 for seniors and students, or $5 for kids five and under. Buy through www.ticketsnw.ca or call 604-521-5050.
