Calling all theatre and performance lovers! Join USC's Musical Theatre Repertory for our iconic event, Peppers 2021! On February 12th at 5:00 PM PST, @uscmtr will host an InstagramLive event to fundraise for The Actors Fund, featuring many talented groups and performers getting pepped. This ridiculously fun night showcases artists eating a habanero pepper and attempting to perform under the influence of the spice, all while donating to The Actors Fund. MTR will match the first $350 of all donations, and we encourage more. After our live event, MTR will launch a TikTok challenge where performers can also attempt to handle the heat of the fearsome habanero, perform, and help out the incredible efforts of The Actors Fund during this pandemic. Visit us on Instagram @uscmtr for more information, advice for the challenge, and to sign up to perform. Let’s get pepped!
