I can't decide if the subhed should be "Kids, let's put on a show!" or "They shoot non-profits, don't they?" But the struggling-to-survive North Shore Music Theatre in Beverly will benefit from three cabaret performances this week by the young cast of "High School Musical 2." Wednesday at 9:45 and Saturday at 10:15 the cast will hit Overtures restaurant at the theater, after their regular "HSM2" duties, to perform Broadway standards and pop songs. Suggested donation is $20. On Wednesday at 7:30, dozens of local students from NSMT’s Academy of Music Theatre and Summer Stages programs will perform and share stories of NSMT’s impact in their lives. The cabarets will take place in Overtures Restaurant at the theatre. More info: NSMT.org.
“We are extremely grateful for the support NSMT has received thus far, but need to keep going full steam ahead to increase awareness and maintain pressure to raise essential funds,” says David Fellows, chairman of the NSMT Board of Trustees. “NSMT has been the community’s theatre for more than 50 years–individuals must act now to do their part to save this cultural and artistic gem by making a donation, purchasing tickets to our current production and attending these cabarets.”
