Wellesley will be well represented among the 18 amateur singing groups competing on WGBH 2-TV’s Sing That Thing!, which returns for its third season on April 7.
Both the Wellesley High School Rice Street Singers and Dana Hall Director of Choral Music David Coleman‘s Confirmation group will be taking part in the program.
Members of the public are invited to RSVP and be a part of the audience on Friday, February 10, Saturday, February 11 and Thursday, February 16 (grand finale) (The taping for the Rice Street Singers and Confirmation takes place on Feb. 10)
