OOTB November Retreat

 In Archive

Our November retreat, a wonderful weekend at Koloona by the Shoalhaven River as we started to assemble the elements of our show that will be held next May.  Vonny is putting together a story, brought to life by a selection of songs, some new and some old. The peaceful setting of the conference centre provided an ideal backdrop for a weekend of creativity and sheer hard work!  Plus a bit of socialising J By the end of the weekend we were all confident that we had established a firm foundation for our show.

On the Saturday evening, we took the opportunity to watch a video of the Peter Pan ballet performed at the Illawarra Performing Arts Centre in August, where we sang as part of the orchestra. At the time, we weren’t able to see anything that was happening on stage as we were stationed directly underneath it.  We were able to hear their feet on the boards, but could only imagine what was actually happening up there!  Now we know and we understand how our oohs, ahs and swishes contributed.  What a great show it was!
