What an incredible weekend with THE incomparable Richard Saucedo 🎶 We had the privilege of sharing a handful of days workshopping our upcoming production, elevating our musicianship, and absorbing every minute with him – we could not be more grateful for his time and energy spent with the corps ❤️‍🔥

Juneteenth is a day that honors freedom, recognizes the enduring fight for equality, and reminds us about the importance of music as a voice of hope.
