The chorus for the Atlanta Opera‘s sold-out run of “Porgy and Bess” features two music educators from Atlanta Public Schools: Miles and Adamsville elementary chorus teacher Letricia Henson and Douglass High choral director Ben Polite.
Both Henson and Polite are active in the local arts scene, according to the system's TalkUp APS blog. Polite was featured this past summer as the Rev. Ralph David Abernathy in the musical “I Dream,” about the life of Martin Luther King Jr. Henson was featured in the operatic scene, “La Donna In Viola,” from Tyler Perry’s latest film, Ntozake Shange's “For Colored Girls."
