GLENN COPELAND KPH Productions' founder has over 30 years experience working creatively with both children and adults.  As an actor, composer and performer regularly appearing on shows like Mr. Dress-up, Sesame Street, and PBS’s Shining Time Station Glenn impacted a generation of children. Along with a career in adult music, Glenn continued to create programs for children partnering with organizations such as ParticipAction and The Toronto Board of Education.

He has written over 100 songs for children, storylines for plays, and a children's musical play - The Mother's Tree.

Glenn is a songwriter, composer, musician - pianist, drummer, singer - a storyteller, story writer, puppeteer, web designer, visual art lover who finds personal expression in computer generated art and a multi- media artist. He also loves to dance!

It is Glenn’s great delight to work and play with children.  He believes in and has seen the creative power of play to reveal the vast potential within  each child.                                  

Depending upon the scope of a project, it may be desirable to combine the creative expertise of one or more artists whose disciplines and skill sets are complimentary with Glenn's.

Here are just a few of the artists with whom Glenn has worked towards the creation of exceptional experiences for children.
