"The Character Show"
An Interactive School Assembly on Good Behavior
Description:
The Character Show is a fun, motivational school assembly that teaches core character values through music, humor, and student participation. Performed by veteran presenter Obediah Thomas, this Los Angeles-based program inspires K–6 students to make positive choices and show respect in and out of the classroom.
Inspired by the Josephson Institute’s “Character Counts” Six Pillars of Character, this high-energy, interactive show encourages students to reflect on how they treat others and take responsibility for their actions. It’s a perfect way to kick off a school-wide character campaign or enhance your Red Ribbon Week programming.
Throughout the show, students join Obediah on stage to help demonstrate character traits like trustworthiness and fairness. A running gag—Obediah’s (fictitious) mom calling to remind him to behave—has students laughing while reinforcing key lessons.
Watch highlights from The Character Show—Obediah Thomas brings humor, music, and live audience participation to teach core character values.
