The cast of the national tour of the hit Broadway musical Hamilton will take the stage at THE BLACK BOX in downtown Franklin on Monday, December 6 at 7:30 pm. The cast, including Franklin Performing Arts Company friend Christopher Rice-Thomson, will perform their holiday favorites in an exclusive one night fundraiser event. Proceeds from the evening will benefit the Franklin Performing Arts Company and The Santa Foundation. 

 

In addition to the donation from the event, patrons are invited to bring a wrapped gift to the show to be donated to The Santa Foundation. The Santa Foundation,established 30 years ago, provides gifts for families in need at the holidays. 

The December 6 Broadway event will also support the Franklin Performing Arts Company (FPAC) and THE BLACK BOX. From the beginning, FPAC has followed a mission dedicated to promoting the performing arts with an emphasis on youth development. Through FPAC, THE BLACK BOX stage is graced by Broadway stars, professional artists, local performers, and students of the arts. Their performances feature live orchestras and professional artists, and they often provide a first glimpse into the world of theater for local youth. 

Featured in the concert is Hamilton cast member and frequent Franklin visitor Christopher Rice-Thomson. Rice-Thomson is on the Broadway Faculty at the Franklin School for the Performing Arts (FSPA) and has performed with FPAC at THE BLACK BOX in Newsies (Jack Kelly) as well as his own creation Christopher Rice’s The Tappy Christmas Special: LIVE!. 

Tickets for this exciting one-night-only concert are available at THEBLACKBOXonline.com or by calling the box office at (508) 528-3370. THE BLACK BOX is located at 15 W. Central Street in downtown Franklin, MA.
