Details:
Deb Snyder and Philip Bynoe, as PBnDeb, combine personal childhood experiences, vivid imagination and musical creativity are in this unique CD of childhood issues faced in âGrowing Up.â This CD is useful for parents, teachers and other adults in generating discussion, interaction, and problem solving with children going through those âGrowing Upâ issues.

Using the familiar contemporary musical genre, PBnDebâs songs show children they are not alone when dealing with problems such as shyness, bullying or entering a new school. In âBullyâ, Philipâs experience with such a person racing him to the teacherâs desk is remembered. In âFight, Fightâ, Deb recalls a situation with a bunch of girls surrounding her and calling her âChicken.â

PBnDebâs CD also highlights the joys found in the everyday such as going for a ride, visiting the zoo, dreaming of the future, or even exercising.

The best references come from the children with whom Deb and Philip interacted while working with Urban Improv in Boston, Massachusetts. The following are quotes (and spelling) from some of those children:

âGoing to Urban Improv has helped me use my imagination. Wish we could go there everyday, but we can always use our imaginations so you could be there with us. Using the instruments makes my want to stand up and sing along.â

âI like program because we sing new songs every Wednesday and mostly do many games. The reason Iâm writing this letter is because I want to thank you for helping us get ready for the games weâre going to do. I think youâre a great actress. I think you make things exiting and fun..â

ââI really enjoy Urban Improv. I have a lot of fun. I learned that using your imagination is not just for little kidsâ¦.Youâre funny. You have a pretty voice. You should become a singer. â¦I hope you donât forget me when this program ends. I know I wonât forget you.â

âDeby youâre the best friend and you very funy and fun to play with and every time you look at me you have a smile. Youâre my best best best best friend.â

âDeb I want you to always remember me. You are sweet like a rose.â


Personal Bio Intro

Deb and Philip first met in Boston, Massachusetts as members of Urban Improv. This talented group of actors and musicians worked, and continue to work, with children who must cope with growing up in an urban environment. Deb and Philip left Boston to pursue their individual professional careers, but reunited in Los Angeles. The discovery that neither had lost the passion for wanting to help children led to the creation of PbnDeb.
