Join Universal Gospel Choir as we celebrate Broadway!
Universal Gospel Choir (UGC) is thrilled to present Broadway Goes Gospel on Sunday June 2nd at
3:00pm at the Vancouver Playhouse Theatre. Under the leadership of Artistic Director Lonnie
Delisle, the powerful 70-voice choir will bring their Gospel stylings to some of Broadway’s most
loved tunes. Expect to tap your toes to Raise You Up, be inspired by This is Me and be heard
in You Will Be Found.
Universal Gospel Choir will be joined by the Showstoppers, Vancouver’s favourite teenage
“Glee” choir for select numbers choreographed by Ovation Award recipient, Jason Franco. The
Showstoppers have brought their high energy and excellent voices to performances with Barry
Manilow and Foreigner and are sure to bring smiles to all faces.
Rounding out the Broadway sound is the dynamic UGC band led by Grammy-award nominee
Jonny Tobin (piano) with Vancouver favorites Brett Ziegler (organ), Jason Nickel (bass), Jon
Holisko (drums) and Jay Leonard Juatco (guitar).
Universal Gospel Choir is honoured to perform at one of Vancouver’s best civic theatres with
the support of the City of Vancouver.
Universal Gospel Choir is Vancouver’s award nominated, favourite multi-faith gospel choir. For
almost forty years, UGC has blended its commitment to social justice with musical excellence to
honour gospel traditions bringing joy and hope to all. A UGC concert is one that fills the soul
leaving audiences uplifted and inspired. Each UGC concert sells out quickly so secure your seats
now.
Universal Gospel Choir is home to singers of all backgrounds, faith journeys and walks of life
who share a common belief – music can move the world.
Ticket purchases are non-refundable.
