Description:
Balls and Blocks is a simple story of prejudice and cooperation. It is a visual allegory in which the title characters overcome real barriers by working together to open the way for a newcomer. The piece is backed by an African-style percussion performance by members of the San Jose Taiko Group and voice over by a group of fourth graders from Burbank, California.
