Wisconsin Singers, the University of Wisconsin-Madison’s premier Broadway-caliber touring production, is taking the stage at Roncalli High School for its 56th season show, “When Opposites Attract” on April 7 at 3 p.m.
The new original 90-minute show, performed by unpaid full-time UW-Madison students collectively studying more than 24 majors, features captivating vocals, stunning choreography and the electrifying 10-piece Wisconsin Singers student band.
Audiences will hear more than 40 songs in this fast-paced show, including top hits from artists like Tina Turner, Queen, Dolly Parton, Michael Bublé, and more. Numbers from “Hamilton,” “Wicked,” “Some Like It Hot” and other award-winning Broadway musicals. The Wisconsin Singers’ band will showcase its special blend of jazz, funk and classic rock.
“Manitowoc is such a welcoming and community-focused city, and we absolutely love working with the more than 60 energized and excited students in our pre-show workshop before watching in awe as they light up the stage with performances from the musicals they have been working on,” says Abby Pritzl, executive Producer of the Wisconsin Singers. “Seeing so many students impacted by the arts and music in one day is such a rare experience – we can't get enough!” This year, the event will open with performances from Roncalli Middle School and Treehouse Theater.
Tickets range from $10 (senior/students) to $15 (adults) and are available at wisconsinSingers.com/see-us/manitowoc, or by calling the box office at 608-886-6801.
