This May, the Wilton Singers offer a joyful and memory-filled musical journey highlighting memorable and enjoyable songs from a wide array of beloved, award-winning movies. “A Night at the Movies” is a must-attend event.

Audiences will hear well-known hit songs from Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Moulin Rouge, The Greatest Showman, The Lion King, Slumdog Millionaire, Amistad, and more. Classic favorites are offered in new, stunning ways as well, including “Shenandoah” and “Come What May.” Even songs from top contemporary films such as The Barbie Movie and Pitch Perfect are featured.

Pianist Lisa Bettke, a Wilton High School alumna and former Madrigal Singer, will accompany the group. Bettke also serves as accompanist and conductor with the Fairfield Children’s Choir. Percussionist Robert D’Angelo and bassist Rodger Bryan also join The Singers, as well as guest instrumentalists from the choir itself.

The show’s producer, Patty Taylor, a longtime member of the Singers and Brewster Central School District’s K-12 Performance Art Coordinator – shares, “We couldn’t be more excited to deliver this special, diverse program in honor of the movies that we’ve loved and their memorable songs that have enriched our lives. It’s truly a thrilling and joyful musical celebration that fuses a love of the movies with the beauty of music written by top composers of our times.”
