Benefit keeps going despite show cancellation
The Child Care Council of Onondaga County says the benefit will proceed despite a lead actor being injured causing the Syracuse University drama department production of The Secret Garden to cancel. Syracuse Stage will host the benefit during its An production, aiming to raise about $7,600, aided by a silent garden-themed auction. Some attendees redirected donations, and the main stage audience was larger overall.
