URU

Welcome to

U R U

A magic show with an anti bullying message presented to children in Kindergarten through Grade 6 throughout the Northeast.

U R U was created by professional magicians Sue Curran and Bryan Lizotte, who have over 40 years combined experience entertaining children and adults.

The URU magic show, combines magic and comedy while getting across some very important messages.

1). URU! I am me, and URU. It's OK to be me and it's OK to be U. Everyone is different. If we weren't the world would be a boring place.

2). Don't pick on, or tease someone because they're different from U.

3). Don't let yourself be picked on or teased. Walk away or tell someone.

4). Bullies are unhappy people. So they pick on other people so they will be unhappy too.

5). All a bully wants is attention - if you ignore them, hopefully they will leave you alone.

6). Ignore the bully, walk away, tell the bully to stop, then ask others for help.

7). 'Telling' an adult about a bullying situation, is not the same as 'tattling' to get someone in trouble.

The B A N D acronym

B bullying is NEVER OK. Many bullies don't realize they are bullying and think of it as "only having a little fun." Three types of bullying: verbal, physical & social.

A ask for help, if you are being bullied, or know someone who is.

N no one deserves to be bullied. Just because someone is different, doesn't mean you can pick on them. Bullies often justify their actions by saying that the victim 'deserves' bad treatment.

D do your part. Creating a bully-free school is a team effort between bullies, victims, bystanders, parents, teachers and school staff.

The U R U anti bullying magic show, helps students and teachers identify signs of bullying. It also helps the students feel good about themselves. All while having FUN.

The show is approximately 45 minutes long and at the end each student receives a URU bookmark, which helps emphasize the show's theme.
