Sisters singers take stage at Tower

Sisters choir students took the stage last Saturday at the Tower Theater in the Stage the Change student conference.

The conference is designed to inspire and teach attendees to employ the performing arts to find their social voice, to become responsible global citizens and catalysts for change.

Ten Outlaws choir students sang backup for conference headliner Mandy Gonzalez on one of her songs at the Tower Theater performance Saturday night. Gonzalez is a highly respected Broadway performer. Her credits include Angelica Schuyler in "Hamilton," the Wicked Witch in "Wicked," and the original cast of "In the Heights."

The Sisters choir students were the only students selected for this honor. They included Alli Ilmberger, Ted Stolasz, Kayla Root, Vix Trask, Audrey Roth, Bryant Leaver, Seraphina Smith, Olly Chapen, Kendall Guiney, and Olive Morris.

The students sang an unpublished song that was written for Gonzalez by Broadway legend Lin-Manuel Miranda.
