Winter Holiday Concert
Our 2nd performance of the school year will be on Tuesday, December 12th at 7:00 pm in the BHS Auditorium. This is a required performance for all choir and musical theatre students. In preparation for the concert, we will have a mandatory afterschool rehearsal on the day of the concert from 3:00-4:30 pm. This is the only opportunity for the choir to rehearse with our accompanist and instrumentalists. After the rehearsal, students will then have the option to leave and come back for the performance or stay for a provided dinner in the cafeteria. Please check with your choir student to ensure they have submitted their DINNER FORM if they are planning to stay for dinner. All students should be back in the choir room, dressed and ready to warm up by 6:00 pm. Doors will open for the public at 6:30 pm. A list of all required performances can be found on the last page of the handbook.
