We would like to invite all our Alumni and their families to come back to visit the school on December 19th, 2014. This is a half day for the students ending at 11:00, so teachers and students will be around to visit with after school is dismissed. A complimentary lunch will be provided from 12:00 to 1:30 for Alumni, their families, and faculty members. The food will be provided by a fantastic local restaurant “Bake and Bite” and the menu will be both Western and Thai.
This is a wonderful time for visiting during and after the meal to reconnect with friends and former teachers. There will be some special prizes given and CMIS souvenirs on sale as well.
After the meal, The Gate Theater Group, Chiang Mai’s English language theater company, will stage “Christmas Choir” at 2:00 PM. The show will be a benefit performance to help raise money for the CMIS Development Fund. The suggested donation for admission is 270 Bt per person, but we welcome any donations should you feel more generous.
The performance should run about one hour and is suitable for all ages.
Please let us know in the link below if you will be joining us so that we can prepare enough food for everyone!
Please forward this invitation to any CCC/CMIS Alumni that you know – we are looking forward to seeing everyone and having time to catch up!
The Story:
The Christmas choir has never sounded worse! Perhaps it’s because of a lack of talent or not enough rehearsals… or it could be because the choir members aren’t sincere in their reasons for being there. Dede is trying to drum up votes for the next city council election while Laraine just wants to get out of the house and away from her large, loud family. George is always trying to sell insurance while Phoebe is trying to catch the eye of choir director, Michael, who she simply adores. Not even Ron, the photographer, can get them to cooperate! Fast lines fly in this zany send-up of human nature — some hilarious, some poignant — with each character getting his or her moment in the spotlight… literally! The good-hearted volunteer choir director thinks the only way to get someone to bless this group is if they all sneezed at the same time! If even the director has no faith, then what’s in store for this motley crew of would-be singers? Find out how a young preacher helps the choir find harmony and the true meaning of Christmas in this fast-paced Christmas comedy.
