SALUTE TO BROADWAY:  A Musical Revue featuring the All Saints' Choir
Salute to Broadway, a musical revue presented by our All Saints' Choir, occurred successfully on Sunday, March 23rd at 4:00 pm. The 55-60 people in attendance enjoyed hearing selections from shows such as The Lion King, Les Misérables, West Side Story, Wicked, A Chorus Line, Oklahoma!, Phantom of the Opera and many more. We were delighted to see so many dear and familiar faces in the audience along with a number of folks who were brand new to All Saints'.
