Ensemble Biography

Christopher Jive and the Uptown 45 is in its twenty-second year of existence at West Branch High School. This show choir was founded by its current director and is one of two choirs at WBHS. CJU45 is excited to bring you a 21st century version of Shakespeare’s classic play “Romeo & Juliet.” Romeo will be played by Gavin Hills. Juliet will be played by Karley Staker. We hope this light-hearted, upbeat version will bring a smile to your face. Please sit back and enjoy our show!
