Stafford Lancers 2009: 'Outside the Box'
Stafford Lancers are pleased to announce the title of the 2009 show: 'Outside the Box'. Stafford Lancers will for the first time in the corps history be bringing a show full of upbeat Jazz, Swing and Blues to the arena for 2009.
The corps new musical direction derives from a desire of wanting to try something new and exciting for both members and supporters. Musical Director Jay Howard said "People always expect Lancers to come out with a big musical or production, and that's exactly what we didn't want to do. We wanted to try something as a creative team we would have never have even contemplated doing in the past. Outside the box will bring a new energy to the Corps as well as a different challenge to both the staff team and the members."
The show is full of old jazz 'big band' charts, some patriotic memories and some of the creative teams favourite pieces, mixed in with some drum corps legends all seasoned off with an old slow jazz classic.
The Stafford Lancers are pleased to announce their intention to compete in the BYBA Division 2 class for 2009. This is to ensure the corps continues to develop and move forward. Corps director Dave Milton said "After a couple of years rebuilding and consolidation we are exciting about putting in place what will be a full and exciting programme for our members for 2009. This show also gives us realms of possibilities to explore visually.
