The doors reopen for the second production of this “Sunday with FOA” at 6:15 p.m. and begins with the young voices of the Hopwood Glee Club. This excellent club is under the able direction of Karen Manuel who has mentored numerous young voices that have performed throughout the island. They are followed by the two short plays presented by the Friends of the Arts Youth Theatre. This second set concludes with another fine musical group, the Marianas High School Concert Band under the direction of Su Jung Ham.
