Olé! Olé! Olé!

Sexy, Sassy with a hint of Salsa!

Friday & Saturday,
April 1-2, 2011 8pm

interj.  Used to express excited approval; n. A cry of "olé."
 

The rhythm is gonna getcha! Feel the heat – move your feet to the Latin beat as the Chorus melts away the winter doldrums and whisks you away on a journey to Latin and South America (Flyin’ Down to Rio). This concert features the spicy, sizzling sounds of Gloria Estefan (Conga), Ricky Martin (Livin’ La Vida Loca), and Selena (Como la Flor) as well as La Bamba, Tito Puente’s Oye Como Va (popularized by Santana), music from Broadway’s Tony Award-winning In the Heights and more! This concert will have you shaking your Bon Bon!


 


Let’s Hear it for the Boys!

The Ultimate Boy Band Review

Friday & Saturday,
June 24-25, 2011 8pm

In 2009, we sang praises to our Divas. Now, we celebrate the heartthrobs that made you swoon when they sang just for you. The Chorus has spanned the decades from the ’50s to the ’00s (naughties) and everything in between to find your favorite songs; you know, the songs you crank up and sing along to while you’re in the car. They are all here for you from Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons to The Beatles, the Jackson 5, the Backstreet Boys and the Jonas Brothers! You’ll be screaming like its Beatle-mania all over again!
