Omaha North's Choral Music program wants you! We will hold auditions on 3/8 in room 133 from 9 a.m. until noon. Because we have choirs that just sing and those who also dance while singing everyone will do some of both. Dress comfortably and plan on staying until everyone has been seen and heard in order to decide what choir they should go to. Bring a little resume of your experience as a singer, dancer, actor, gymnast, anything that would help us know you as a performer. If you can't come on that day or have questions please email Mr. Joseph Manley about an audition at another time.
