Just last week, BACK TO THE FUTURE on Broadway helped the Make-a-Wish Foundation (Make-A-Wish® Metro New York) grant a wish to Sasha Saynor, a Texas girl affected by Ovarian cancer. Sasha made her Broadway debut in the smash hit production based on the iconic 1985 film on Thursday, July 25, after a few costume fittings and rehearsals with the cast.
Sasha is a spirited 12-year-old from North Texas who has been acting, singing, and tumbling all her life. She was referred to Make-A-Wish, a nonprofit organization that grants the wishes of children with critical illnesses, when she was diagnosed with cancer. As a performer with many leading roles in hometown productions, Sasha’s wish was to be part of a Broadway show.
