Sixty-five high school and middle school musicians will participate, including the Central High School’s Mixed Madrigals, all-female high school Madrigals, Central’s Instrumental Consort, and Nash Middle School Mini Mads. Directors are Maggie Prendergast, Amy Shinabarger, and Kelly Gifford, with sets by Nikki Shifflet’s Central High School Art Club and script by Martin Kohn.
