SCP Summer Junior Spotlight Presents a Special Virtual Fundraiser Performance of You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown
For the past few months, the cast and crew of Sunnyvale Community Players’ production of You’re a Good Man Charlie Brown — Revised has been hard at work to show that even in the midst of a pandemic and social distancing, you can’t keep good theater down.
While the world may have us exclaiming “Good Grief” with each new advancement, we’ve been in dire need of more theater in our lives. For a time, we were holding out hope that we could put on this show in front of a live audience. Like Lucy and Charlie Brown with a football the world held out a carrot “surely you’ll get to do it this time, we wouldn’t pull it away from you, not again,” only to be told that no, we could not.
But like Charlie Brown, we kept persevering anyway and thanks to a special arrangement with with Concord Theatricals, Sunnyvale Community Players is proud to present 2 unique special virtual fundraiser performances of “You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown — REVISED.”
