Busy Week with Into the Woods Production!

Last week was crazy with choir rehearsals on top of tech week for our VPA production of Into the Woods Junior. The show was a great success, and I'm happy to note that of the 38 cast members, 27 have either been in a VPA choir or are currently in a choir! Considering how strong the ensemble music was in that show, which is a Stephen Sondheim score, I can see why they managed it so well! It was a pleasure to direct such a group! It's very validating to our program to see that kind of continued support as we branch into new performing opportunities for the kids. Thanks to all the parents who supported their children in this project which required 3 afternoons each week in 2 hour rehearsals, on top of our choir rehearsals! It took a lot of effort, but was sooo worth it! I'm still just relishing the memory of the weekend shows!  Here are just a few pictures of choir members.
