Manson Meridian Singers to present ‘Broadway!’
MANSON — For those who have never been to a Broadway show, this year’s Manson Meridian Singers production will soon be bringing that vibe to the local stage.
The local choral group will be presenting “Broadway!” on stage next month at Manson Northwest Webster High School.
“Broadway offers a huge variety of music to choose from, so I knew soon after last year’s show concluded that would be the direction I would go for 2025’s show,” said Director Andrea Christians, of Pocahontas. “The show reflects some of my favorites, some of the choir’s favorites, and a few that are brand new to everyone. A particular favorite is ‘Come What May’ from ‘Moulin Rouge’ because it features sweeping harmonies that are just really pleasing to the ear.”
Other Broadway songs on the program will include those from “Fiddler on the Roof,” “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat,” “Les Miserables” and more. In addition, Meridian members will perform solo and small group numbers from other Broadway shows.
“Each year the group grows and improves and becomes more comfortable with the challenges I throw at them,” Christians said, “and I’d like to thank each singer and each musician for their commitments to our shows.”
Show times are 7 p.m. March 1, and 2 p.m. March 2, at the Kate Toben Auditorium at MNW Jr./Sr. High School.
