Simone Recasner volunteered with the Project in 2019, both in the Summer Project Exchange: WIN Playmaking and our Winter Playmaking production UPSIDE DOWN, The Topsy-Turvy Plays. This fall she is starring in a new drama on FOX about a reality dance show called THE BIG LEAP. FOX is supporting The 52nd Street Project with a donation to help us continue to offer opportunities for the young people of Hell’s Kitchen in Manhattan to pursue their dreams.
