Two shows are planned at The Legacy Theater in Carthage during November.
The unique music of Vocal Trash will ring through the theater on Friday, Nov. 5.
Presenting “Music with a Message,” the Vocal Trash ensemble of young singing, dancing
instrumentalists brings a high-energy musical and environmental message.
Their show for the general public begins at 7 p.m. Nov. 5. In the afternoon, the four Hancock
County high schools have each been invited to bring 100 students for a free show at The Legacy
Theater.
Vocal Trash combines recycled musical instruments, such as their “one of a kind” bass and
guitars, with an industrial percussion section made-up of metal trash cans, plastic barrels, water
bottles and other landfill rescued items.
Their afternoon show for students is one of the theater’s educational programs sponsored in
part by the United Way of the Great River Region. This show brings a message of green
sustainability and anti-bullying through popular music and urban dance.
The next weekend, The Folsom Prison Five: Johnny Cash Tribute performs at 7 p.m. on
Saturday, Nov. 13. Coming from Springfield, this ensemble of five brings all the favorite songs
and sounds of Johnny Cash to the stage.
Tickets are available at The Legacy Theater box office from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday to
Friday, or call the theater at 217-357-9479 and leave a message. They are can be purchased
