This all-star lineup of local performers will be the perfect accompaniment to Brittney's high-energy concert.

Joining Brittney is Northeastern High student Abby Skinner. Abby was surprised with the news in the middle of her school day by Ryan Bowie, Executive Director of The Avalon Theatre. Bowie addressed the Northeastern High choir class, directed by Marysville resident David Wilson. "I hear you are a huge fan of SIX (the Musical)" said Bowie "I would love to give you the opportunity to sing live on-stage with Brittney Mack!" A long-time fan of Six: The Musical, Skinner responded with a look of shock and excitement before enthusiastically accepting Mr. Bowie's offer.
