HARRISTON – The Grey Wellington Theatre Guild (GWTG) is looking to expand its arts and entertainment activities to include a new “Musical Troupe.”
The idea is to provide an opportunity for those who enjoy singing and/or playing an instrument, guild officials explain in a news release.
“We are inviting anyone who enjoys performing their musical talents of singing or playing an instrument to come to an opening meeting,” states the release.
The meeting is set for 7pm on Jan. 8 at the Harriston Town Hall Theatre auditorium, located at 68 Elora Street South in Harriston.
The intent of the meeting is to discover the level of interest from local communities in forming a musical group and to hear ideas and preferences from potential participants.
“This not a ‘choir’ and the genre is wide open,” guild officials noted.
People with interest in anything from traditional barbershop, classics, old country, new country or rock ‘n’ roll oldies to current trends in folk, girl group, or male groups are welcome.
Musical skits, movie and TV themes, gospel, doo wop, disco, or tribute acts are among other areas which could be explored.
Participants may partake in whatever troupe activities match their own interests or offer opportunity to expand their talents. The troupe is open to all ages. There are no auditions and no experience is required.
“Invite your friends and enjoy the fun,” guild officials urge.
