Named “Best in the World” at the 1993 Sweet Adelines International Competition, Toast Of Tampa reigned victorious by defeating 25 other regional champion choruses from around the globe, and earned the highest honor in women's barbershop singing—the 1994 International Sweet Adelines Chorus Champions. Each year the chorus brings their talents to the Straz Center with a blend of old and new repertoire to the delight of their Tampa Bay audience. The Toast Of Tampa Show Chorus lights up the stage with its unique brand of spine-tingling harmony, flashy costumes and energized choreography. These 110 women have performed for thousands, performed with Skitch Henderson (twice) and the Florida Pops, as well as for conventions, corporate functions and many other special events. Toast Of Tampa members come from all ages and all walks of life. Doctors, nurses, teachers, lawyers, accountants, homemakers and other business professionals volunteer their time and talent. Some have musical education and training, many do not. Friendship and the love of singing is the common bond.
