No question – it has been a journey! But we are approaching our destination and we are positively giddy about it! We have been Zoomrehearsing for the past 15 months and we are finally at a stage where we can start planning for in person rehearsing – outdoors!
Who knew in March 2020 that COVID would raise havoc for months - not only weeks? Who knew that Ottawa would become a hot spot for cases and would keep us apart until year end and beyond? Who knew Zoom would become second nature and a lifeline? Let me try to paint a picture of how Canadian Showtime Chorus (CSC) has not only survived but thrived!
CSC is big on acronyms -Tuesday night rehearsals are now referred to as TNL, short for Tuesday Night Live!

2020 derailed in March when a global pandemic was declared in light of the Coronavirus a.k.a. COVID-19.
