roles as well as perform. Colby Smith choreographed the show and handled advertising.

soloists.

We are the World: Songs of Unity will be a warm up for the all school musical production Songfest, April 13-15. Fraser also directs Songfest and many of the Celebration Singers performers will have a role on that stage as well, either as hosts and hostesses or as members of a club performance.
The Celebration Singers also present the annual Cocoa and Carols show to sell out-crowds each December. Their performances are underwritten by Cornerstone Bank.
