Enter the Traitors Castle if you dare!

The Columbus Gay Men’s Chorus (“CGMC”), central Ohio’s premiere TTBB vocal organization, is kicking off its 37 th season with concerts at the Riffe Center’s Studio One Theatre starring CGMC’s auditioned, select ensemble, VOX.

VOX’s “Traitors: A Murder Mystery” show brings the hit reality competition series to the stage, singing and dancing through songs of motivation, despair and love triangles, and keeping audiences guessing through the bass, baritone and tenor “faithfuls” until the murderer is finally revealed.

“Traitors has caught all of our attention so VOX has decided to make it even gayer by creating a concert around the death and manipulation of the Traitors,” said CGMC’s Artistic Director Brayton Bollenbacher. “The concert features music, dancing and an Agatha Christie-style crime all in one concert. Can you put your detective talents to the test and find out who is the traitor in the midst of VOX?”

Only time will tell. The concert will be an interactive experience for audiences, who will have the opportunity to meet the suspects and vote on their top villain during the performance. Trust no one.

It is now the largest TTBB (tenor, baritone, bass vocal range) chorus in Ohio.
