Marietta’s Big Chicken Chorus is producing a major Tribute Show on June 22 at 3:00 p.m. in the Byers Theatre at the Sandy Springs Performing Arts Center. The “Celebrating the Gentlemen” Show will pay homage to an iconic barbershop quartet, Gentlemen’s Agreement, the 1971 Barbershop Harmony Society international gold medal winner. The performance also will honor the group’s sole surviving member, Drayton Justus, a former member of the Big Chicken Chorus who has served in a variety of leader and mentor roles in the Society for 60 years and who will be a treasured guest at the Show.
Three local barbershop choruses — the Big Chicken Chorus, the Atlanta Vocal Project and the Stone Mountain Chorus — will be joined by four outstanding quartets in presenting a wide variety of selections from the Gentlemen’s Agreement repertoire. Be ready for a “big finish” when all of the singers combine for a familiar finale.
A gala “Afterglow” will be held following the show with a catered meal and more singing. Tickets for the Show and Afterglow are available at wwww.bigchickenchorus.org or www.citysprings.com.
