Dear Creative Writers!
It is time to activate your imaginations. Above you see six pumpkins, but four of them have faces carved into them. Imagine that these four pumpkins are singing. In fact, they are a barbershop quartet. Do you know what that is?
Well, a barbershop quartet is a group who sings in four-part-harmony! They also sing "a cappella". That means that they are singing without instrumental background. No piano. No drums. No nothing!
Below is a video of one man pretending to be a barbershop quartet. To be a real barbershop quartet, there would have to be four "real" people singing the four different parts.
Here is your creative writing challenge:
Listen to the "barbershop quartet" below. BUT imagine that the voices are coming from the pumpkins above.
Now, it is time to write these pumpkins' story. How did the group meet? Who taught them how to sing? Where do they want to go? Who is trying to stop them?
This is going to be a treat! I can't wait to see what you come up with!
Have fun with this, and HAPPY WRITING!
