Program Notes
Chicken Run was a 2000 British stop-motion animated comedy film in partnership with Dream Works. The plot centers on a band of chickens who are desperately trying to escape from their pens and certain death as components of the McCreedy Chicken Pot Pie factory. They eventually succeed with the help of Rocky, a smooth-talking rooster. This fun arrangement from the soundtrack allows band members to bring out their kazoos and hum along.
