Cause Celebre

Created by Food For Thought’s Founding Artistic Director, Susan Charlotte, Cause Célèbre is devoted to fostering an enhanced understanding of psychological, physical and social issues. Each month a different issue will be the focal point, a different set of plays will be presented and a different group of celebrities will perform. Every month proceeds will go to a foundation connected to the cause.

This first program, to benefit the National Meningitis Association, is devoted to Nick Springer, who contracted "Meningococcal Meningitis" when he was fourteen and had to undergo partial amputations of all four limbs. Nick, now a college student and U.S. Paralympic Wheelchair Rugby (Murderball) Athlete, attends the first show of this exciting new company.
