40 Brookland-Cayce High School Honors Choir members will have a Thanksgiving holiday to remember.

The choir, under the direction of Wendi Humphries, will perform on opening night, Nov. 29, at the Epcot International Festival of the Holidays Candlelight Processional at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Fla. 

The Brookland-Cayce choir will join others selected by video audition from across the United States for the holiday shows. 

Brookland-Cayce’s choir performs at 6:45 pm and 8:15 pm at Epcot Center Amphitheater.

Choir members will become Disney performers, wearing Disney choir robes and holding electric candles.

“The students are excited,” said Humphries, whose Honors Choir is making its third appearance at the popular holiday festival. “They will gain a worldly experience of performing at Disney and will be singing several songs in foreign languages to represent the different countries in Epcot.”

For Humphries, another special part of the trip will be seeing some former students. McKenzie Ouzts, a Brookland-Cayce High grad and Honors Choir member who graduated from USC and taught at Saluda River Academy for the Arts, now works at Disney. 

She will perform as a Disney cast member with the Brookland-Cayce Honors Choir students. David LaTorre, a 2012 Brookland-Cayce graduate and Honors Choir member who graduated from Anderson University,  also works at Disney.
