Story Description:
Prospect Bear is an inspirational children story about following your dreams. The main character Shine is a curious bear cub who believes in her heart she is meant to live more than just a traditional bear's life. She discovers her dream when one day she lets her curiosity get the best of her and follows the sound of music to Park Prospect. Shine soon finds that as much as she would love to follow her dream of playing music, she may have to give it up.
Show Description:

The story will be narrated by the singer while related illustrations are projected on a screen for the audience to view. The narration is supported by sound effects which lead into live music.
