Photo of Luke's Entertainment Luke's Entertainment "Luke is a captivating musician and storyteller! Our school (450 K-5 graders) loved having him present "Pepito and the Trash Cans", a bilingual story featuring many amazing instruments that Luke created himself. Luke transports his audience to Pepito's world in Bolivia and presents a heartwarming story and message that worth and value can be found in everyone and everything! I highly recommend this program. Your students will engage with Spanish vocabulary, STEAM content, wonderful music, and an amazing story! Book him today."
