Freeport, Bahamas - Don't miss YOUR chance to see Up With People this Thursday, February 24th at the Sir Jack Hayward High School gymnasium at 7:30pm!
Up with Peoples all-new production is entitled A Song for the World which features the energy and talent of a cast and staff of 100 representing 21 countries. Aside from this stop in Grand Bahama, their 2011 spring tour will include 20 cities in the U.S., Mexico, and Europe. Up With People has performed in 4 Super Bowl halftime shows, the 2007 Macys Thanksgiving Day Parade, as well as being the opening act for the 2008 and 2011 Rose Parades in Pasadena, CA.
The Bahamas Weekly News Team went on location on Sunday, February 20th at the International Bazaar for the inaugural International Cultural Festival sparked by Up With People's visit. In this video you will get a chance to meet some of the 100 cast members representing 21 countries and see a sneak peek of their spectacular show.
Long before American Idol began discovering and refining new talent or High School Musical tapped into the exuberance of young ensemble casts, Up with People pioneered these attributes while touring the world with their optimistic message of global cooperation and goodwill.
Let's show Up With People we care and show our support to them after they have worked hard in our community to not only perform but provide 3 days of community work.
Proceeds of the show will support two young Bahamians from the Grand Bahama Youth Choir to travel with Up With People this year!
Up With People will put on a colourful cultural extravaganza of song and dance at a show open to the entire community of Grand Bahama. All families that hosted the traveling group were given two complimentary tickets.
Tickets for the big show are on sale at Seventeen Shop (downtown), Island Java and the Pelican Bay Hotel. Proceeds from the show will benefit two young Bahamians from the Grand Bahama Youth Choir who will have the opportunity to travel with the group.
This trip is the first time Up With People have performed in The Bahamas and it is hoped it will not be their last. The group departs on Friday, February 25th. Do not miss this opportunity to see their show!
Up with Peoples visit to Grand Bahama is sponsored by the Pelican Bay Hotel and Discovery Cruise Lines with support from their beneficiary, the Grand Bahama Youth Choir and with support by The Bahamas Weekly.
