In early 2024 Netflix released the riveting documentary “The Greatest Night in Pop” which chronicles the making of the 1986 hit single “We Are The World.” Over $63 million dollars was raised by USA for Africa to relieve hunger and famine in Ethiopia. In response to the film’s revisiting of this project, Marymount Manhattan College’s Theatre Arts Department Pop/Rock Students will take the stage and pay tribute to the artists who came together for a bigger cause. The audience will be transported back to the 1980s and hear the hits of Lionel Richie, Hall & Oats, Cyndi Lauper, Kenny Loggins, Michael Jackson and more! …And yes, of course you will hear “THE” title song live!
