1. Easter Cantata


2. Cappella


3. Full Choir

The Bull Shoals Community Choir is directed by Nancy Lindeen who also directs the Bull Shoals United Methodist Choir. Several years ago, people from other church choirs expressed this sort of thing: "Gee you're lucky at BSUMC because you have enough people in your choir to sing cantatas. Our choir is too small for that." So, Nancy started the community choir in order to fill their need. At first, they sang in the church; then moved to the theater, adding standard tunes to the programs. Nancy always tries to select tunes that have some Christian value in the lyrics.


4. Narration Too


5. April Showers

There are two branches to the Bull Shoals Community Choir: (1) "New Beginnings", a small vocal ensemble which practices on Monday mornings in the Lutheran Church (this group was started to accommodate singers who cannot practice at night for various reasons); and, (2) "The Apple Dumplin' Gang", a group of fun-lovin' women who take it to the limit with comedy and costumes. They practice hard whenever they can manage to get together.

The Bull Shoals Community Choir presents 3 shows a year at the theater: 1] a show that features an Easter Cantata; 2] a patriotic show that features a patriotic cantata; and, 3] a Thanksgiving program that features a Thanksgiving cantata. The choir practices 10 months a year in order to prepare these shows.
