Remember St. Rita

I'm working on an article about our trip and couldn't remember the name of the place we sang . . . and then I found the flyer.

Just so you know, the official name of the church was "Chapelle Sainte Rita" and it was in Fontenay Aux Roses.

Holly's description of what we remember:
At the end of the concert, the choir left the auditorium and headed downstairs into the holding area where we began congratulating each other on our performance. The girls took off their shoes and the guys removed their jackets. About 3 or 4 minutes had passed since our last note.

Suddenly, Ms. Dale Reynolds appeared at the door and said in a loud voice "GET BACK UP THERE, THEY HAVEN'T STOPPED CLAPPING YET----- SING SOMETHING ELSE!!!!"

We were stunned that they were still applauding--it just didn't seem like it could be true.
