Show Title
Banana Republic
Repertoire
Movement 1: "Jungle Boogie"
Theme: The banana’s origin — tropical, primal, full of life.
Music Style: Afro-Cuban rhythms, tribal drumming, maybe a touch of Earth, Wind & Fire.
Visuals: Jungle sounds to start (bird calls, monkeys, wind), guard-style dancing with vines and leaves, earthy tones + yellow accents.
Drill Moments: Form a giant banana tree or a jungle path.
Impact Moment: Full brass entrance like sunlight piercing through the canopy.
Movement 2: "Banana Split (The Love Ballad)"
Theme: A dramatic love story... of a banana heartbreak 🍌💔
Music Style: Lush ballad, maybe a mashup of romantic melodies (like “Can’t Help Falling in Love” with original motifs).
Visuals: Duet between two dancers — one “banana” peels away from the other.
Guard: Flowing silks, golden hues.
Funny twist ending: Dissonant minor chord or banana gets dropped (literally or figuratively).
Movement 3: "Banana Pop!"
Theme: Bananas in pop culture — Minions, banana phones, slapstick!
Music Style: Mashup of pop songs and banana references:
“Banana Phone” by Raffi
“Hollaback Girl” ("This sh*t is bananas!")
“Peanut Butter Jelly Time”
Custom funky groove.
Visuals: Goofy choreography, color guard in banana suits.
Percussion Feature: Banana-related sound FX (slide whistles, coconut shells).
Movement 4: "The Banana Coup"
Theme: Satirical twist — a banana-themed revolution.
Music Style: Cinematic + Latin-inspired + funky brass — think Danny Elfman meets “Carmen”.
Visuals: Flags turn into banana banners, intense drill formations.
Final Formations: A giant crown (banana republic!), then morph into a peeled banana with guard swirling like the skin.
