BELFAST — On Saturday, April 6, at 3 p.m., Halcyon String Quartet will perform their third annual family show at the Colonial Theatre in Belfast. This year's performance, designed for children of all ages, is a lively musical rendition of Robert McCloskey’s beloved Make Way for Ducklings.

In collaboration with local actor Ben Meader, Halcyon combines music, story, and illustration for an hour of joy, humor, storytelling, and beautiful music. Musical selections include classical favorites, folk tunes, and nostalgic songs from childhood.

Halcyon is a Midcoast Maine-based artist collective and string quartet that designs and presents multimedia performances that combine live music with science, film, art, and spoken word. This year's "Make Way for Ducklings" is Halcyon's third book-based show. It will be performed throughout Maine this summer and will be shared with over 700 students through a series of free matinees in April.
