Galloway, N.J. — The Stockton University Performing Arts Program is recruiting singers for the
16th production of Handel`s “Messiah,” in December.

All members of the community interested in singing are welcome, no audition is required. Rehearsals
begin Wednesday, Sept. 25, at 6:30 p.m. in the Campus Center Theatre at Stockton and
continue Sundays and Mondays until the performance at 7 p.m. Dec. 8 at the Borgata
Hotel Casino & Spa in Atlantic City. Solo auditions for the performance will take
place at 3:30 p.m. on Oct. 13.

Stockton Professor of Music Beverly Vaughn will again lead the Stockton Oratorio Society
community choir, which is open to all interested singers, regardless of the level
of experience. The group includes Stockton students, members of area choirs and community
members.

“The Stockton Oratorio Society and the School of Arts and Humanities have been involved
in producing Handel’s ‘Messiah’ for 40 years,” Vaughn said. “We are anticipating that
this year’s concert could be the largest in the university’s history.”
