Audience members should expect to feel excitement and to experience the creativity that Cypress Show Choir has to offer. The theme of the show along with the songs and the dances are all supposed to come together in order to provide a unique winter show. Megan Na, the President and Voice Captain for High Voltage, stated that “there is a lot of dancing but we also have an acapella number to showcase our vocal skills and how much we have improved since last year.” The highlights of the show includes all of the group songs and the audience carols.
A song that the audience should definitely look forward to listening to would be ”Do you Believe in Magic,” Cypress Show Choir has a surprise with this song specifically that the younger audience would love. There will be multiple solos and duets, one that Jones wants to point out is Josephine Beltran and Lia Delgado’s duet and they’ll be singing “Santa Can’t You Hear Me?” Other songs that audience members would be able to recognize would be “Where Are You Christmas,” “The Chipmunk Song,” and “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas.” What Cypress Show Choir really wants to present, that is different from previous years, is how much they have advanced in their showmanship and musicality. They are making all the efforts by having vocal coaches and bringing in more choreographers that will push them to their limits, just to give Cypress High School better performances that the audience will love and cherish. Mrs. Jones stated, “We have seen significant progress from even having our first show this year, we hope that from each show we step up in the student’s abilities, like their singing should be super great.”
Omar Swidan, the Director of Activities stated, “If you are planning on showing up to the show, just know that you are getting your money’s worth, we’ve put a lot of work into the show.” Cypress Show Choir is making all the efforts to step up their game and to present an amusing and cheerful show for the holidays, make sure to come by Cypress High School on December 12 and December 13, to enjoy the Candy Cane Lane Winter Show!!
