In Brief

Voices of Hunger is based on nearly one hundred interviews, conducted at different food pantries across the state. This musical variety performance is designed to raise awareness about hunger in New York State.

A silent epidemic, this production illustrates that hunger shows no bias and that food insecurity can affect anyone regardless of age, gender, level of education or employment status. This assembly also highlights some common hardships that teenagers may take for granted such as job-security, medical expenses and the general cost of living in today’s economy.
