PLATINUM 2011: Our first Platinum in the new Performing Arts Center will have a slightly different twist. Platinum USO TOUR will honor our soldiers and veterans with a revue of the 70 year musical history of celebrities who have performed for our heroes oversees with the United Service Organization. We will start during World War II and continue to the present day. Our "tour" will include celebrity impersonations, faculty cameo appearances, and some of the best music from the last 70 years. Soldiers and veterans will be invited to be our guests of honor and will be admitted free of charge if they are in uniform or have military ID.
Auditions for "Platinum" are in January! Hints for a successful audition: 1. Pick a piece of music that you like that is upbeat, entertaining, and available in sheet music form in the right key for your voice. Make sure your choice fits in with the theme of the show. This year all music must be from a movie soundtrack (any genre, any year). 2. Search for the sheet music online or on the pop lists of the Eudora Choral Music Library and order it or check it out from the library. Make sure you order it early so you will have time to learn it in the right key. You may also wish to order the karaoke CDs online to help you practice. Online music sources: In Lenexa: JW Pepper Store 3. Be ready for your audition! You may audition either with the karaoke track (on your ipod or disc) or with live accompaniment. No a cappella auditions are allowed unless the original music is a cappella (without accompaniment). You may either bring your own accompaniment (band members, pianist, etc) or ask Mrs. Renfro to play for you. If you would like to ask Mrs. Renfro, do so at least one week prior to auditions with music in hand. Set up a minimum of one rehearsal with her prior to auditions. 4. Bring 2 copies of your sheet music to your audition and your ipod or disc if you will be singing with karaoke. 5. Break-a-leg!
