Synergy Show Choir has had an amazing season with our set Once Upon Another Time! This team has been thrown some curve balls this season, but came out stronger than ever. This team has put in so much work to put together an amazing show and there is one last opportunity to see it!
What is Pop Show?
Pop Show is the final performance of the set for Synergy Show Choir. The choir will perform at the final choir concert of the season, Spring Sing, but this is the last chance to see their competitive set. The concert will also include a number of small group performances that the show choir kids were able to audition. These include solos, duets, and even entire class songs. The song nobody can miss, however, is the senior song. While Pop Show is a celebration of all that Synergy has accomplished throughout the season, it is also a goodbye to the seniors. This year the show choir will be performing “Breakaway” by Kelly Clarkson. This is also an opportunity for the Synergy Show Choir Show Band, known as Combo, to show off their skills with a few songs of their own. Finally, this show will also include performances by the Hamiltones A Capella who have also been working hard to bring a great performance.
Season Accomplishments
The 2024-25 season was a great year for Synergy. We walked away from this season with two Spirit Awards, a Best Crew award, a Best Costumes award, a 3rd place award at Sparta: Burst of Adrenaline, and two of our solo competitors, Jenna Korban and Lilly Peterson, took home awards for their solos. This was a very fun and competitive season for Synergy and we are extremely proud of what we were able to accomplish.
At some competitions the judges pick an outstanding performer. That is the performer who stood out in a positive light as giving their all the entire performance. This season we had three Synergy members be awarded for their effort at competitions. Congratulations to Aviya Mitchell, Livy Powell, and AJ Bois for being recognized this season.
Synergy Quotes about this Season and Pop Show
“Synergy is just the most fun ever. It’s the class I always look forward to during the day because it means I get to see my friends and just have a blast. This season has been so fun. I’ve met so many new people and made so many new friends, and just have gotten so much closer with the team. There was something about the season that just made it so good. I am also so hyped for Pop Show because of all the little small acts this year and the girls’ song is going to be really fun. I’m going to miss the senior class a lot, but it will be really fun to get to perform the set with them one last time. Next year won’t be the same but it will definitely be just as fun as this year.” Emily Muehlenbach, sophomore
“I am so excited for Pop Show! It is bittersweet as it is my last one, but I get the opportunity to be in multiple different numbers with amazing people and perform our competitive set for the last time. It is going to be a great end to a wonderful four years!” Gabby Ziegler, senior
“I’m very excited for Pop Show for numerous reasons, but also because it will be the last time my cousin and I share the stage. This season will be one I remember forever because of him, but so many others too. I’m so grateful for this opportunity to perform with so many talented people!” Oktober Brown, sophomore
Make sure to get tickets and see Pop Show on April 3rd and 4th at 7 pm in the Hamilton Fine Arts Center. We can’t wait to see you there!
