HAWLEY and HONESDALE, PA — The Wayne Choralaires will celebrate hometowns, friends, and neighbors with its summer concert, “A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood.” Performances will be on Sunday, June 26, at 6 p.m. at Queen of Peace Church in Hawley; and on Monday, June 27, at 7:30 p.m. in Central Park, Honesdale.

The concert will begin with the well-known Fred Rogers song “It’s a Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood,” followed by the singing of “The Star-Spangled Banner.” Other selections for the first half of the concert include “Come Live with Me and Be My Love,” “Swing Down, Chariot,” and “I’m in His Care.” The second half of the concert will include Franz Schubert’s beloved “Die Forelle” (The Trout), Meredith Willson’s ballad “Till There Was You,” medleys of songs from “West Side Story” and Disney productions and more.
