Service: 4 Hours
Along with all of the Winter events, the Winter Showcase is my favorite set of concerts in choir. We sang all of the songs we sang for the nursing homes and more; however, there was much set up and tear down involved. The set-up occurred on the same night as the caroling tour on the sixth of December and the tear-down was on the last night of the Winter concert (the 14th). I was only able to participate in a very small portion of the overall set-building that occurred. The set construction is directed by Rick Wessel, as it is each year, and really provides the bang in our concert. The set that he lead gave a very home-y feeling for the "Home for the Holidays" theme, but gave a nice twist at the finale. One of our last pieces is "Nightmare Before Christmas," which was when our centerpiece Christmas tree gained demonic eyes.
Overall, it was a fun experience, but I wish I would have worked more. The tear-down after the last night of the concert was pretty tiring, but it was nice to work with the people that I had just sung with to close off another season.
