Ty the Pie Guy – Let’s LIVESTREAM

In Family Entertainment, Livestream, Our Work, Social Media, WebSeries on August 9, 2020 at 6:30 pm

When Ty the Pie Guy’s Ty Freedman called Susan to say he wanted to make a difference for kids during Covid, 134 West teamed up with Ty the Pie Guy to produce 24 episodes of Ty’s Kitchen Dance Party LIVE – a streaming show to help kids stay active and engaged during a time of great stress for parents and children.  😍

Thanks Essential Workers

Ty opened each show welcoming kids to his kitchen and using dance and yoga for a fun kid’s work out, while also talking about important, timely issues – like wearing masks, Pride month, Black Lives Matter, missing graduation – giving kids and parents a way to discuss and deal with this unprecedented time. Even school kids and teachers joined the LIVESTREAM so Ty could shout out to students and fans around the country.

For the July 31st Season Finale on Facebook and YouTube Live, we joined STREAM for No Kid Hungry and raised almost $1200 to help provide over 10,000 meals for kids.  👍

What’s next for Ty the Pie Guy: Season 2 of Kitchen Dance Party LIVE? Or Ty the Pie Guy: The Movie? Stay tuned, mask up and eat pie!

We’ve had a wonderful year here at 134 West — a year of making new friendships, developing new projects and zooming past milestones. We got to create lots of new art, and experience another beautiful return to Green Gables. There is so many projects to talk about, but we will only mention two: Ty the Pie Guy and Bend in the Road: The Anne of Green Gables Musical.

Ty the Pie Guy traveled to Canada to win BEST IN FAMILY at the Vancouver Web Fest!
