About “That’s Life!“ Certainly we’ve all been through it: You’ve finished school; next, find a job. Could be a great start, but maybe later you find something you want to do. Look for a partner to enjoy it all and grow old with – hopefully that works out. Probably have a family, a home. Friends, for sure. Activities and hobbies. Success? Sometimes, but oh – the ups and downs of it all. The song says, “You’re riding high in April, shot down in May.” “That’s Life”, sings Frank Sinatra, and you know he’s nailed it. Show co-producer Ann Smith sums up the program: “Music reflects the eras of our lives so beautifully – from youthful enthusiasm and naiveté, through career opportunities, leisure activities, even retirement lifestyles. Come enjoy the songs of your life and the memories they bring.” About SingAlong SingAlong is a collection of 70-some area music lovers that has been performing for local audiences since 1999. As always, there will be some fun numbers, exotic costumes and the very talented SingAlong Show Band. For newcomers to the area, SingAlong does all the singing, but audiences are always welcome to join in.
