On TV today, Super Bowl number 49 displays,
A famed and grand event after a 16-week season,
Football players, coaches, commentators, and replays
Will bring the season to a close with as much as possible reason.
But, The Soo Theatre Project all year long,
Creates and provides opportunities for so many,
It may be dance, instrument, paint, or song,
For what’s current, just look at STP’s marquee!
There’s always something for everyone,
At The Soo Theatre Project, it’s true,
Join the fun no matter what: snow, sleet, rain, or sun,
Plus, you’ll love the wonderful STP crew!
There’s an upcoming “Arty Party,”
On Friday, February 13 at seven,
A chance for the painter within you to be free,
For a couple of hours you’re in art heaven.
It’s painting the Tahquamenon Falls,
Your own creation to take home that day,
Artist Randy Krause guides and enthralls,
So that you’ll have a beautiful domestic display!
Dinner-Theater right here in our beloved Soo,
Is such a delightful wintry night occasion,
“Murder At Mardi Gras” plus a delicious menu,
Gumbo, salad, corn bread, chicken or shrimp Cajun!
Can you decide who’s who and whodunit?
As the cast reveals one clue after another,
Be part of the interactive cast, stage, and wit,
5:30 on Feb 14, 15 at Elks Club – what grandeur!
Central United Methodist will host,
The STARS Faculty Recital event,
STP’s talented instructors won’t boast,
But graciously share talent is the intent.
Friday, March 20 at 7:30 the teachers perform,
Many difficult musical pieces with confidence,
This show will happen as planned unless a snowstorm,
It’s to be for all who attend a wonderful experience.
Alas, signs of spring will begin to show themselves,
In April when we may go outside for a photo,
But for now, The Soo Theatre Project has “working elves,”
To perform musical “Annie” – oh what a show!
Students kindergarten to eighth grade may join the fun,
To sing songs like ”Tomorrow” and “It’s A Hard Knock Life,”
Call STP and schedule an audition for your children,
To sing and dance as Annie elevates from difficult strife!
The summer season of shows will soon be announced,
Around town, throughout the UP, and across the border,
It’s an exciting time and will soon be to all pronounced,
That The Soo Theatre Project’s 2015 shows are in order!
In preparation for all of the summer performances,
On Saturday, March 21 auditions to be held 1-5,
And also on Saturday, March 28 – many guesses!
Who will be cast as whom and perform live?
At STP, there is always SO much more to come,
Because The Soo Theatre Project is always offering,
Such as ballroom dancing classes to fuel the passion,
Salsa, Tango, Fox Trot, Waltz, and Swing!
Ballet, pointe, jazz, modern, tap dance instruction,
Cello choir, New Horizons Group, Youth Orchestra,
Acro and hula-hoop dance with teachers so caring and fun,
Flute, piano, violin, voice, and of course, the viola!
Saturdays are wonderfully musical and wholesome,
With vocal ensemble, piano ensemble, and group piano,
Taught by Ronda McGreevy and Karen Hughes Beacom,
Voice and piano students of all ages develop and grow.
The Soo Theatre Project serves its communities,
To enhance the lives of those who seek,
With multiple daily offerings to please,
And, everyone’s creative talents to pique!
