didn't want to give away the joke by telegraphing the show's contents, so we chose "Get Happy" as the show's name. If you've seen the flyer, you may have noticed that one member of the Happy Face Quartet is wearing a hard hat. That's our little inside joke. 

Guest quartet this year is Downstate Express of Rochester, MN. In 2004, Downstate Express won the International Seniors Quartet Championship at the Mid-Winter Convention in Biloxi, Mississippi. 

The show committee has been meeting since July. Thanks to Wendell Aldrich, Dean Beckman, Gary Glockhoff, Allan Harms, Tom Harrington, John Hayden, Bob Kerdus, Greg Koenigs, Gary Lindsay, Dick Ormond, Barb Read, Tom Read, John Roltgen, and Ryan Schlader for their hard work and many hours spent on the show. 

Performance dates are Friday, April 21, 7:30 p.m.; Saturday, April 22, 2:30 and 7:30 p.m. Tickets are already available at the Theatre Cedar Rapids box office. Prices this year are $17 for all performances, $5 for students.
