Mighty Foods: The Musical  

Published on 09 April, 2010 

The Central Queensland Conservatorium of Music at CQUniversity Mackay is producing a fun musical designed to teach kids that you are what you eat.

Performed and written by CQCM students and lecturer Kim Kirkman, Mighty Foods: The Musical combines 45 minutes of singing, acting and dancing.

The CQUniversity musical was inspired by Karen Fischer's bestseller Don't Tell Them it's Healthy.  The show presents a positive theme by demonstrating how eating mighty foods can make children smarter, stronger and faster.

CQUniversity lecturer, Kim Kirkman said, "Junk food manufacturers market their products in very clever ways preying upon young people's need to be accepted and have fun. We are marketing good foods by showing children that eating them will make them more successful."

PhotoID:8705Mighty foods: The Musical will run 11 - 13 May, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday at 10am, 11.30am and 1pm at the Central Queensland Conservatorium of Music, Boundary Road, Planlands, Mackay. Bookings 4940 7800.
