Saxony-Anhalt: Theater has so far found around 40 singing football fans

Magdeburg (dpa/sa) - The Magdeburg Theater was looking for football fans to sing together - and has found around 40 so far. The first rehearsal will begin next Thursday (June 23) in the auditorium of the opera house in Magdeburg, the theater announced on Tuesday. The goal is a joint performance by FCM fans with professional musicians at the theater festival on September 10th. The new general director Julien Chavaz took over the artistic direction. Spontaneous people who want to sing along are welcome to register - after all, it should be a powerful choir, said a spokeswoman. Participation is free.
