Hello Parents,
One of the joys of being part
of an ensemble is all the wonderful opportunities that are available to sing in
such an artistic community. The show with the Boonslick Chordbusters is a great
opportunity for the students to sing at the Missouri Theater and share their
wonderful music again. It should be openly stated that the show is titled
“Kickin’ It Back for Christmas”. The Chordbuster Chorus has invited the Honors
Choir to be a guest on their show. If you have further questions about the
nature of the show, please email Mr. Battle directly at RBattle@CPKS12.org
Concerning logistics,
students should be shepherded to the side—stage door between new Shakespeare’s Pizza
and the theater. Families simply need to watch their kid enter the door, then
hurry to the lobby to get good seats! The backstage area is tiny, I would ask
that we minimize the number of humans in this space. Every family will be given
two comp tickets to get into the show for free. Any additional ticket can be
purchased for $10 at the door. Children under 12 are free.
The show tends to be very
light hearted in nature and full of fun. The HC will sing four songs as part of
their set, then close the show at the end by singing Peace, Peace with the
Chordbusters adding Silent Night on the tail end. Again, this is not a show
produced by Columbia Public Schools and we are guests on the show.
Before the last tune of the
night, I will elaborately explain the student retrieval process. I think this
is all! Thank you all for your support this year thus far. I have argued that
this is the hardest working choir in mid-Missouri and it is all because of your
wonderful support and kindness.
