Broadway stars Lilly Cooper, Emma Hunton, Jonah Platt, and Ciara Renée join a virtual choir and orchestra of 77 performers sing Kerrigan and Lowdermilk's "Holding On" in a fundraiser for the ACLU and NYCLU.
The project, led by University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music orchestral conducting student Jeremy Robin Lyons, came out of a desire to build community and provide a creative outlet during the COVID-19 quarantine.
Lyons selected "Holding On" from Kait Kerrigan and Brian Lowdermilk's in-development musical
The Bad Years because of its
uplifting message
