Center Stage: Glee Club in Fort Wayne, IN
Friday, January 20, 2012
The Glee Club loaded the buses during a snowstorm!
We arrived safely at St. Joseph United Methodist Church in Ft. Wayne, IN.
The properties committee had to set up the show quickly because of the time we lost travelling on the snow-covered roads.
Ft Wayne got five inches of snow, enough to cancel the local high school’s basketball game. But not enough to stop the Glee Club!
Lighthouse did a sound check before the show to warm up their voices.
The youth of the church were preparing a dinner for us to enjoy to thank us for coming.
Director Bill Griffel stepped back to make sure our lineup looked perfect for our audience.
We rehearsed our surround song one last time before dinner.
We were able to share dinner with a few guests.
The show begins!
Kyle Hoos, a senior from Ft. Wayne, got to give a lavaliere to his mother during the first half of our show.
Senior Billy Thiedeman sang to a lucky audience member.
Voiceovers debuted “Not Over You” for the packed house.
Ba Na Na danced and entertained everyone with “Roll Over Beethoven” and “Shout.”
Flashbacks sang their new medley of songs by the band Boston.
Simon May, a senior from Ft. Wayne who is also our assistant manager, gave a lavaliere to his mother during the second half of the show.
The group had plenty of energy for the second half of the show.
Sophomore Taylor Reiff gave away his carnation to a very lovely lady at the end of the night.
