The music department’s chapter of MENC (Music Educators National Council) invites you to “A Broadway Revue.” The performance is scheduled Thursday and Friday, Feb. 2 and 3 at 8 p.m in Dawson Auditorium, located off of Charles Street on the Adrian College campus.

The Revue is again directed by Eric Swanson, who is a senior at Adrian College and also MENC vice president. Sophomore Jim Davidson will be the assistant director, and senior Kim Ferguson, MENC president, will choreograph the show. She is assisted by freshmen Cynthia Ferguson.

This year’s performance will feature numbers from “Ragtime,” “Thoroughly Modern Millie,” “Newsies,” “Sideshow,” “Anything Goes,” “Aida” and many more. Forty Adrian College students will entertain for the night. The cast will be accompanied by a 15-piece orchestra pit composed of students and faculty.

Some of the 14 soloists include Adrian College students Kelly Fox, Aaron Taylor, Ben Rosebrock, and Heather Smith. The performance will also feature dance and large chorus numbers.

MENC is a student-run organization that organizes the “Revue” to allow musical theater students another venue to showcase their talents.

Let Adrian bring Broadway to you!
