Suggestions?
Is there a show that you have always thought would be a perfect fit for NCT? We would love to hear from you! We produce a family-friendly musical in fall (Fall 2026 announcement coming soon!) and a play in the spring each season. We always have ideas, but would love to hear from YOU, too! Please submit this form to suggest ideas for musicals and plays that you think would be a hit with audiences in Needham.
Andrea McArdle (Broadway’s first Annie) and Deahna Spada (Annie in NCT’s fall production)
On Saturday, September 20th, members of the orphan cast of NCT’s Annie sang with Broadway legend Andrea McArdle, who originated the role of Annie on Broadway in 1977. They closed out the Great Hall Concert Series show singing the classic song Tomorrow to a sold out house!
