We’ve patterned our production numbers around that concept.”
He adds: “We are now finalizing the lineup of songs and performances. The group is currently rehearsing almost every day. The fans can expect big production numbers and seamless transitions between segments. Of course, they’ll hear their favorite songs and dance and sing along during the show.”
