FEBRUARY 17, 2017, KEIZERTIMES, PAGE A5 KeizerCommunity Whiteaker choir Cabaret a hot ticket KEIZERTIMES.COM By DEREK WILEY Of the Keizertimes Even in a bigger venue, Andy Thomas, choir director at Whiteaker Middle School, decided on two nights for the annual Cabaret show. And that decision has paid off as the fi rst performance, Thursday, Feb. 23, has already sold out. “Parents like to come more than once,” Thomas said. “The kids work so hard and put so much into it, to only do it one night, short changes. For the time, money and effort, it’s worth it to do it two.” The second show is Friday, Feb. 24. Both performances begin at 7 p.m. at Salem Al- liance Church, 555 Gaines St. NE, Salem. Tickets, which include ad- mission to the show, dessert and entry into raffl e draw- ings, are $10 and available at the Whiteaker main offi ce. The cabaret, which along with singing, also includes acting, dancing and lighting effects, is a fundraiser for the Whiteaker choir. Half the money goes to future choir trips and the other half to music, supplies and scholar- ships. The theme for this year’s KEIZERTIMES/Derek Wiley The Whiteaker Middle School choir performs songs from Aladdin during a practice for its upcoming Cabaret on Feb. 23-24 at Salem Alliance Church.

Whiteaker eighth grader Elise Myers said her favorite is Wicked. “It’s really dramatic and dark,” she said. Along with Aladdin and Wicked, the choir is also per- forming songs from Annie and a collection from different pi- rate musicals. Thomas has 200 students in his six choirs that will per- form on both nights. During Wicked, the McNary High- landers Classics will also join in. “We’re trying to create a nice connection, bridging the kids from middle school to high school,” Thomas said. Performing in front of so many people is a confi - dence booster for the middle schoolers. “You go up in front of a thousand people in the au- dience and you’re in middle school and you perform and the audience is clapping and going crazy, what that does for them personally, especially in middle school is exponen- tially more than any other level because they’re so de- velopmentally going through so much and they’re more self conscious,” Thomas said.
