Bellefontaine Intermediate School 5th-graders recently performed their music program titled “Thwacked” in the BHS Auditorium.
The program was a combination fairy tale, Frog Prince meets Chicken Little. An acorn falls on Frog’s head to begin the story, and then Frog, Froggie, and Frogger convince the entire village that the sky is falling.
The mystery is unraveled by Rachel, with help from the mayor, council members, and several other main characters.
The students enjoyed the costumes and comedy of this year’s show.
