From the Carolina Alumni Review: Pandemic Inspires Efforts to Help Families Get Food When COVID-19 began to show its true virulence in the U.S., Catya McMullen ’11 and others in the performing arts scene in New York rued that they weren’t first responders. “We felt useless,” McMullen said. “We wanted to figure out a way to take the work we do to benefit those affected by the pandemic.” McMullen, a playwright and screenwriter, said she began working with theater director Jenna Worsham to reconnect their colleagues in the performing arts community with one another and their audiences to make a difference.
