Life is a cabaret Old Chum...



Every year, the Transylvania Choir presents a musical variety show that we like to call Cabaret and each year the choral ensembles get to vote on a theme and then work like crazy for three weeks to pull together group numbers complete with choreography, not to mention all of the solo and group acts that are included.

The Transylvania Choir sings its way into hearts during Cabaret

This year the theme is "A Night at the Movies" and we have numbers ranging from the choir's rendition of "Eye of the Tiger" from Rocky to a solo of "Kiss by a Rose" from Batman Forever to my solo of "And All that Jazz" from Chicago. This is my favorite part about being in choir because I was a die-hard show choir member and musical star at my high school and this kind of rekindles all of that fabulousness.

My favorite part of all of this, is that the whole Transy community comes out to support the choral groups at all of this -there's first-years through seniors, faculty and staff, parents and alumni- all who come out to enjoy a fun night of entertainment. Another great thing that's happening this year is that all of the proceeds (tickets are $5) are being donated to Hope for Haiti.

Transy Boy's Acappella (TBA) is always a highlight of Cabaret


If you're interested in attending everything goes down this Friday and Saturday the 29th and 30th of January in Carrrick Theatre located inside of the Mitchell Fine Arts Center at 7:30 both nights. The box office will be open for ticket reservations Jan. 29, from 12:30-3 p.m. The phone number is (859) 233-8601.

Come check it out if you're in the area, it's a great way to see the dynamic of campus
