The Men's Chorus loves the '80s

by Barbara Ragon

Cleveland-Join the North Coast Men's Chorus as they present, as the finale to their 21st season, "Totally Awesome '80s: A Conversation with the Chorus."

This light hearted look-back, directed by Richard Cole and written by Dan Bobeczko, will bring back memories of the ten years known for its unforgettable top 40 hits, big hair, boom boxes, Trivial Pursuit, and totally outrageous fluorescent attire as the chorus members look back on what they were doing during the 1980s. They will also

bring their personal stamp of fun and frolic that will have you rolling in your

seat.

It's a concert that will evoke great memories and, because this is the North Coast Men's Chorus, there will be some stunning surprises, some quiet poignancy, and lots of fun.

Plus, while you are there, take a chance to win a fabulous "Backyard Escape Package" including a deluxe three-burner gas grill, Omaha Steaks, Great Lakes Brewery beer, Jack Daniels grilling sauces, grilling accessories and more, valued at $750.
