Psychedelic rock rang out alongside folk revival. Listeners heard James Brown and James Taylor, garage rock and Johnny Cash. Music of the 60&#8217;s was as diverse as the audiences it reached.<\/p>\n<p>So, even though CenterStage narrowed their focus and worked within only 10 years \u00a0of music, there were still countless possibilities and opportunities to find something for everyone.<\/p>\n\n<p><em>Singing and Swaying Through the Sixties<\/em> featured 23 numbers that epitomized every aspect of the title decade. There was a very nostalgic feel to each performance. Actors that introduced songs also recited famous speeches from some of the most important figures of the 60&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>The show was not just about singing great music, it was also about reminiscing and honoring efforts of those who found purpose in recapturing the ideals of a nation. CenterStage gave the audiences a glimpse back to a time where music used its magic to bring together people from every walk of life.<\/p>\n\n<p>And bringing people together is a goal that exists every time CenterStage performs.\u00a0Music can define generations, locations, and groups of people. Each show that CenterStage produces holds an opportunity to create a collection of songs that can unite a community. In 2012 they used a poignant time\u00a0in history to celebrate diversity through music and now\u00a0CenterStage is using Broadway musicals to the same effect.<\/p>\n<p>This year&#8217;s\u00a0show, <em>A Night on Broadway<\/em>, shows just as much of a range of styles and genres as the show 4 years ago.\u00a0As always, they will be bringing the community together through a passion for performance and a desire to bring live entertainment to the masses.<\/p>\n<p>Hopefully this show becomes an important part of the group&#8217;s history, not just because it is their 10th anniversary, but also because\u00a0it represents a collection of music that holds such a close place in the hearts of their performers.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"  wp-image-1571 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/csshowchoir.files.wordpress.com\/2016\/09\/poster.jpg\" alt=\"poster\" width=\"269\" height=\"348\" \/><\/p>\n<p>We are only 4 short weeks from this years show!
