Summer Choral Theatre 2016 is in full swing!
Grades 1-4 will be performing Francis: The Poor Little Man of God.
This charming retelling of St. Francis of Assisi is a heartwarming performance to watch. It depicts Francis’ love of God’s creation and gives the young performers a model of how to always be thankful for everything in our lives, down to the smallest bird in the sky. Our younger participants will engage in a fully staged production that includes enchanting animal costumes!
Grades 5-8 will be performing The Rock Slinger and His Greatest Hit.
The story of David and Goliath, a brave tale of courage and trust in God, makes a powerful impact in this musical production. The formidable combination of Allen Pote’s dramatic music and Tom Long’s lively dialogue makes for an exciting and enjoyable production for all ages. With a stage overrun with sentries, kings, commanders, spears, flying rocks, shepherds, and even a giant, your child won’t want to miss this hit of a musical!
Both performances will be Saturday, June 18, at 11:00, and will conclude the week. Family and friends are welcome to come and enjoy the performances!
