Musical event to be a real showstopper

The Silver Clefs Harmony Chorus is preparing for another sell out show on Saturday, with more than 100 tickets already sold for its sixth Showstoppers Concert.

The group performs a musical concert each year and director Irene Jones said the event was one of the biggest on the group’s calendar.

“We have about 25 members on stage,” she said.

“Our Christmas show is generally bigger but I would say that this one is the most involved show of the year.”

The event will feature tunes from popular musicals including Mary Poppins, Grease, Paint Your Wagon, Oliver and Seven Brides for Seven Brothers.

Musical co-ordinator Pam Griffin, who has performed with the group since its inception in 2002, said the concert was a joyous way to share what the group was all about.

She will take on the role of a bird-feed seller from Mary Poppins in the concert.

“I can’t survive without music,” she said. “Singing is an outlet for a lot of people.”

The concert will start at 7.30pm at the McLarty Hall, Shoalwater.

Tickets are $12 and include a light supper. To book, call Irene Jones on 0415 724 286.
