Rhythmic Gymnastics Production of A Christmas Carol

Edited to add: More tickets have come available but I have to give our final numbers (and a cheque) to Camille on Monday. So far we are at 36. So contact me as soon as possible if you would like to come.


Hello everyone,


We are invited to attend the school performance next Friday, November 28. There are only 20 seats left. I am going to reserve them all. Please contact me as soon as possible if you would like to attend. Several home learners will be in the orchestra and the performance. You can contact me at agordon-smith@shaw.ca or 250-503-5416.


The following is the information:


I am writing you as Head Coach/Choreographer of the Okanagan Rhythmic Gymnastics Club to let you know of a Production of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol that we will be presenting together with the Vernon Community Music School’s Carriage House Orchestra at the Vernon and District Performing Arts Centre this November.

Ring in the season, with the magic and intrigue of this spectacular re-imagined classic through a dynamic fusion of live music, drama, dance, gymnastics, acrobatics, rhythmic gymnastics and cirque-like storytelling. The show has been creatively crafted to be especially dazzling and interesting for children.

It is a story that will captivate young and old alike and we believe that it will be a great opportunity for students to be exposed to and inspired by an artistic/athletic endeavor. They will have the opportunity to see young performers, accomplished musicians and athletes (current/past national and international competitors and even an Olympian).

We are presenting a morning show (9:30am start) for students and staff on Friday, November 28th 2008. Seats are $5/person. The production is approx. one hour and 40 minutes long including a brief intermission. Buses need to be there at least 15-20 minutes before start time so we can accommodate seating and start/finish on time.

We are confident that adults and children of all ages will delight in this experience.

Sincerely,

Camille Martens
