Call for Singers for the TriCounty Choir Institute
AUDITIONS for PASSION PLAYYou are invited to audition for TriCounty Choir Insitute's Teen Chorale's Passion Play, "Why Must He Die?". It is open to all 8th grade, through high school and college age students. It will be held Sunday, January 10th, 2010 from 2-6:30pm at St. James Catholic Church at 200 Walnut Street in Sewickley. It is a meditation through music, liturgical dance and drama on the life, death and resurrection of Jesus. This is done by using a play within a play. Throughout the trial of jesus, the action is stopped. The apostles and holy women are seen reflecting on Jesus' life and reacting on what led Jesus to his death. They share these thoughts with the audience as if they hypothetically would have been allowed to observe the trial. In Jesus' own words, he recalls the Garden of Gethsemane and thinks ahead to his death on the cross. Every participant is a character from the Bible and each one has speaking lines and is on stge the entire play and involved in all the choral numbers. There is no cost to the cast member, but each will be given private singing and acting lessons. This will be the 19th year of consecutive performances of "Why Must He Die?". For more information, please call the director, Linda Wallace. There will be a total of 11 rehearsals to be held on Sundays and Friday evenings beginning in January. The performances will also be held on Friday evenings and two on each Sunday in Lent. The number to call is 412-741-3463 or email Linda Wallace AUDITION TO BE PART OF TriCounty CHOIR INSITUTE for our 20 YEAR ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION YEAR OF 2010!
