It’s been an exciting couple of weeks for many regions as they have reached their destination and put many months of hard work on the contest stage to be judged and for all to see via webcast. Sweet Adelines International Regions 9, 10, 11, 14 and 25 opened the 2017 Regional contest season the past two weekends with amazing and impressive results. What a kickoff!!
It’s been a while folks but that doesn’t mean that Canadian Showtime Chorus has been sitting idle!! Au contraire!!
There is nothing like a retreat to bring renewed energy, focus and commitment to a chorus. Not to mention unleashing creativity and discovering hidden treasures and talents in our ranks – we welcomed two new front row members on Saturday morning and one nearly new front row member Erica emerged as a great teacher and talent and is now our new choreographer!!
Canadian Showtime Chorus’s travelled to Cornwall ON for a brilliant two- day retreat at the NAV Center, a beautiful facility that perfectly met our retreat needs! Add our two incredible coaches Erin Howden and Joe Connolly to the mix and you have yourself a pretty amazing weekend!

Canadian Showtime Chorus is two weeks back into the fold after our summer break! Tonight started like all other nights – risers up – sound system connected – physical warm-up – vocal warm-up - and a sit down???
Not our usual format!! Master Director 700, Sandie Nason, asked us to gather close and sit while she outlined the music plan from now through to April 2018. Instead of starting with next steps and outlining upcoming activities, Sandie announced that she would start at the end of the plan and talk about April 2018 first and work her way back to today!

Way to Represent!! CSC is in the House!!
Some were traveling to Syracuse today – some already in Syracuse were finding bargains at the Carousel Mall – others were taking care of their responsibilities on the Convention Team – some were rehearsing in preparation for contest! But any way you slice it, it was a day full of joy, laughter and bonding! Seeing friends for the first time since about the same time last year was one of the best parts of the day! Hugs – huge bear hugs! And spring-like weather in Syracuse! Who could ask for anything more!

Chorus contest morning! A more relaxed affair for our competing quartets – who were oh so fabulous on Friday – as stepping onto that stage with only 3 friends to anchor you, is so much harder on the nerves than stepping out with 70 of your closest friends!!!

Canadian Showtime rose at the crack of dawn yesterday – semi finals contest day – to get ready for the international stage! We looked hot in our red dresses adorned with beautiful flames pointing to beautiful, engaged faces!
“We are ready for our next contestant. Representing Lake Ontario Region 16, under the direction of Sandie Nason, the Canadian Showtime Chorus.” Applause applause applause – Canadian flags flapping in various corners of the audience. Our supporters were there – they were loud – they were great!!
