Cary's assembly program begins with his renowned, age-appropriate comedy/pantomime performance, which earns him pin-drop respect and sets the stage for a substantial message. Options for message topics include:
Rewards of Thinking of Others - Cary's message shows that thinking of others not only fosters kindness as a way of life but also attracts friends.
Choose Kindness Over Bullying - The message explains the psychology of a bullying mindset to each age level, fosters resilience in victims of bullying, and inspires a lifestyle marked by kindness.
There IS a Silver Bullet to Stop Bullying - Cary's personal story of his young life from being a bullied victim to being a confident leader will inspire resilience in anyone being bullied.
Messages tailored for lower and upper grades, or altogether.
Post Assembly Classroom Discussion with Cary
Whether about bullying, treating each other with kindness, or a combination of both, students will gain a deeper understanding of what they can do to stop bullying or to be a leader of kindness among their peers.
These After-Assembly Discussions are effective as short 20-30-minute visits to accommodate several classes after a morning assembly. They are formatted as an informal Q&A session, although planned instruction is weaved into his answers. All class visits are tailored to the age, and humor is included to add enjoyment to the visit.
Arrange these classroom visits following the assembly, on subsequent days, or as stand-alone visits without assemblies. Inquire about booking one, two, or several days for this beneficial and rewarding experience.
Cost Friendly
Continuous nationwide touring keeps Cary's programs accessible and affordable—without additional travel fees.
Staging Tips
Although Cary's staging setup is simple, please ensure that the audience can see him clearly from head to toe, as you would arrange for a dancer. If the stage is low, consider seating the students directly on the floor without chairs.
Good lighting onto the front of the stage (similar to the accompanying photo) will greatly enhance the performance.
If Cary's performance space is on the floor with the students, please do not wrap the audience around the performance area in a U shape (so that they are not viewing from a direct side angle).
