Edina High School choir marks 50 years

The Edina High School choral program is preparing to put on a show 50 years in the making. In fact, the same students who started ‘Current Jam’ in 1973 will be joining current students on stage for a special performance. Even the choir director who created this show will be in the audience to take it in with his grandchildren. Current Jam was created as a way to highlight individual and small group performances and give students the chance to perform pop tunes. To date, more than 4,000 students have participated in Current Jam. The performances will take place on May 18 and May 19 at 7 p.m. and 1 p.m. and 7 p.m. on Saturday May 20 at Fick Auditorium in Edina High School.
