An animation I directed and illustrated for the New York City Ballet’s Family Saturdays program.  Animation by Stephanie Swart and Music/Sound by Mark Phillips. 

Signed Fraidyzoos are available at Geometry Kids on Grand St in Williamsburg. Also there is a cardboard banana that you are welcome to dance in.
