Seattle Men's Chorus & Seattle Women's Chorus Welcome Special Guest Randy Rainbow 400 members of Seattle Men's Chorus (SMC) and Seattle Women's Chorus (SWC) join together in song at McCaw Hall for Not In Our Town on April 7, 2018 at 8pm and April 8, 2018 at 2pm. New York-based comedian and YouTube sensation Randy Rainbow is making his Seattle debut as the special guest for both performances. In addition to live performances of his wildly popular parody videos, Rainbow will sing hit songs with the Choruses, including the Oscar-nominated and Golden Globe-winning song "This is Me" from The Greatest Showman.

This special unity concert brings together the combined forces of SWC and SMC to confront the rising tide of intolerance in our country. Local musical and gospel performers lend their talents for powerful songs including a tour de force musical theatre piece from the creators of Ragtime about the history of civil rights in America. Not In Our Town salutes the welcoming values of Seattle with inspiring stories of equality as well as songs of celebration including Katy Perry's "Firework," Pink's "Raise Your Glass" and Whitney Houston's "I Wanna Dance with Somebody."

Tickets to McCaw Hall Seattle performances are $25-$78 and available at www.seattlechoruses.org or over the phone at (206) 388-1400. The Seattle area box office is open Monday through Friday, 11:00AM-6:00pm.

Sing along, move about, and dance in the aisles of Seattle's enormous McCaw Hall as you experience this fun, free, family celebration!
