Orpheus Theatre’s Starstruck Players youth troupe is holding a fundraiser to support their upcoming production of “Hadestown: Teen Addition.” Car washes can be purchased for Hoffman Car Wash for $14.00 from a cast or production member, or ordered online.
“Let the Storm Pass Over! Just like the characters of “Hadestown: Teen Edition” face storms and challenges, your car can overcome its own messes with a sparkling wash—all while supporting local youth in the arts!” said an informational post about the event.
“In a production that feels like it was meant just for us here at Orpheus Theatre, we are so grateful to bring the story of Orpheus to life on our stage! This powerful tale will challenge our talented young actors in ways they’ve never experienced before,” reads the Orpheus Theatre website, “‘Hadestown: Teen Edition” invites us to ‘see how the world could be in spite of the way that it is.’”
“Twenty of the students are in the cast and we have six students who make up the production crew, assisting behind the scenes on aspects such as prop and set creation, painting, photography, social media, and fundraisers,” said Jill A. Lehmann, director.
