Gay Men's Chorus 'Elves' to Ring in the Holly Jolly Holidays
Chorus' popular annual holiday concert Tuesday, Dec. 19 in Broward Center's Amaturo TheatreFresh from their star turn as "musical Munchkins" in the recent tribute to Judy Garland, the members of the Fort Lauderdale Gay Men's Chorus now take on the role of merry elves to present their upcoming "Holly Jolly Holidays" concert Tuesday, Dec. 19 at 8 p.m. in the Amaturo Theatre of the Broward Center for the Performing Arts.Director Todd Wiley reports that the music in this year's edition of the popular annual holiday event will be more diverse than ever. "We continue to aggressively look for new music and new arrangements of favorite classics to make this and every other FTLGMC concert a rich musical experience. Along with lush and touching arrangements of such favorites as "Angels We Have Heard On High" and "The Christmas Song," we'll have bouncy '50s- and '60s-style Christmas medleys, Christmas on Broadway and beautiful Chanukah songs. It's truly a program for everyone."
