A Night on the Town…For a Good Cause
October 19, 2023
• Students Acting to Make a Difference is a student-led club at Needham High School. They will perform the dark comedy, Urinetown, to raise money for Circle of Hope.
The curtain is about to go up on the SAMD production of Urinetown: The Musical. While it may be an unusual choice for a performance, the musical has been to Needham a few times in recent years performed by different players. We dropped by a recent rehearsal to find out what makes this particular rendition stand out, and why it is so worthwhile for both the performers and the audience.
Find out more about their selected charity, Circle of Hope, HERE!
