Two Sisters in Leicester

On Ash Wednesday - 9th March, a Two Sisters and a Funeral team travelled to Leicester led by Roger.  This time the team were Emily (Mary), Amy (Martha), Martin (Jesus), Devon (Lazarus), Pete and Jonathan (baddies).  It was great for Emily and Amy to perform at their home venue, and I am sure they had plenty of home support.

The performance took place at Christ Church URC, Dumbleton Avenue - just across the road from CMM's normal rehearsal place in Leicester - Trinity Methodist.  Alan Baum, the choir trainer, was one of the first people to ask to be involved in the Two Sisters performances, and he had done a brilliant job training the choir again.  With the help of Sheila on tickets and other local folk, the venue was completely sold out, and over 200 people filled the venue.

It was great to see a lot of familiar faces in the choir - many have sung with CMM repeatedly over the years at the DeMontfort Hall in the tours.  The choir sang beautifully, and Roger was delighted with the performance.
