One Voice: A Concert Benefiting Best Buddies
Riemer-Goldstein Theater, JCC Newton333 Nahanton Street, Newton Centre, MA
Although the singers and band on stage will be the faces that you recognize well, and the music will be our usual uplifting, family-friendly, tap-your-foot kind of songs, this time we will all be there to celebrate an organization near and dear to our hearts, Best Buddies. We hope our afternoon of family-friendly entertainment — including uplifting music, tempting desserts and fantastic raffle prizes — will raise funds, spirits and awareness!
Best Buddies provides friendships, employment and leadership opportunities for people with intellectual disabilities. Our partner in this concert, Team Believe, is a group of families and friends of all ages who come together every year to take part in the Best Buddies Hyannis Port Challenge, cycling, running or walking in support of a Newton student and millions of individuals worldwide living with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
Our setlist is full of positive, uplifting songs about community, friendship and self-confidence, by artists as varied as Katy Perry, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Bill Withers, Journey, Peter, Paul and Mary, the Four Tops and U2: “One Day,” “Where You Lead,” “Proud Mary,” “Home,” “Roar,” “You’ve Got a Friend,” “Lean on Me,” “This Little Light of Mine,” “Sweet Survivor,” “Swimming to the Other Side,” “One Voice,” “Reach Out (I’ll Be There),” “Wonder,” “Beautiful Day” and “Don’t Stop Believin’.”
