Concert Choir Performs Nude Show

OKOBOJI, IA - ​The University of Okoboji Concert Choir is shocking Iowa with their latest announcement.  This April they will be putting on a nude concert, the “first of many to come.”  In honor of the warm weather, the show is called “Shades of Spring,” and will showcase the students in their most natural state with a selection of songs to celebrate the beauty of the human body.
 
“At first I was a little unsure,” said Thomas Bagwell (nicknamed “T-Bag”), an alto and senior at U of O. “But Eventually I warmed up to the idea.  I’ve got nothing to hide.  And after a few rehearsals I’ve really come to appreciate this concept of showing how magnificent the body is without clothes.”
 
The set list includes a blend of genres, with songs such as “Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes,” an A Capella version of “My Humps” by the Black Eyed Peas, “Take it Off” by Ke$ha, and a medley of songs by the Barenaked Ladies.

​“Most of the girls thought it was pretty sketchy when our choir director pitched the idea to us,” said Anita P. Ness, a sophomore and soprano. “But you know, ever since rehearsals started, the guys in choir have been super nice to us.  They talk to me a lot more now, hold open doors, stuff like that.  I wonder why that is?”
 
“It’s not about sex or lust or anything like that,” said Tucker Johnson, the choir director. “This is about art and beauty.  I feel like singing in nothing will take away all distractions, that the concert will be entirely about the voices of these students.  It will display the raw, vulnerable state we find ourselves in after a long, frigid winter, ready to emerge from our cocoons to become beautiful butterflies.  And I think my message is resonating with a lot of people.  The tickets sold out after just one day, and we’re working on getting a bigger venue.  We just have to make sure it’s warm enough.”
