The Hays High Plains Barbershop Chapter AO22 is looking forward to its 56th anniversary show "We Believe in Music" to be presented April 6 in the Beach-Schmidt Performing Arts Center at Fort Hays State University.
There will be two shows at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m.
Show chairman this year is Roger Day and our chapter coach, Dr. Terry Brull, director of choral activities at Fort Hays State, will emcee the event.
Joining the Hays High Plains Chorus on stage will be the Tumbleweed Chorus from Colby and local chapter quartets.
The headlining quartet will be "After Hours," an American barbershop quartet that won the 2018 Barbershop Harmony Society International Quartet Championship held in Orlando, Florida, with an overall score of 94.7 percent. They are the highest scoring quartet to win since the change in scoring in 1993. "After Hours" has performed for a variety of barbershop shows all across the United States and strives to simply bring joy to all types of audiences through their music.
The success of this annual show helps provide dollars to various schools, singing groups, and other organizations that help people with special needs, such as Hays-based Developmental Services of Northwest Kansas. Our chapter is thankful for the community support.
If you've never attended one of our shows or are one of our faithful fans, this is a "must see" event.
