This fall, we're performing:
Check Out That Star!
(An Eric Rainwater Musical)
Happy Valley has fallen under a black cloud. O’Hare Epstein-Barr, the meanest woman in town, is taking down all the Christmas decorations. But in one funny, crazy dream, O’Hare discovers that Christmas is wonderful when we open our hearts to receive God’s free gift of salvation through Jesus Christ.
Learn more about the show at Rainwater Music Company.
Our Directors:
Miriam Wolf, Music Director
Her former years as a piano teacher, camp counselor, music student, pediatric nurse, and now living out her dream job of raising and homeschooling her four children have joyfully brought Miriam to this new role as Music Director for Kids Chorus. She is excited to combine her passion for music and sharing the Gospel in this fun children's program!
Kate Wimer, Drama Director
When she's not working as a librarian at George Fox University, Kate can be found counseling at Camp Yamhill, singing with the Celebration Community Choir, or hiking with her husband of 11 years. She's excited to share the joy of mission-minded performing arts with a new group of kiddos!
