L.A. theater group Theater by the Blind, the only theatre troupe composed entirely of blind actors, is getting a fundraising boost for their post-apocalyptic show, “Point of Extinction” with the help of “Twilight” actor Kellan Lutz.
Moved by the work the non-profit is doing, Lutz will match up to $10,000 in total donations to Theater by the Blind, after attending on of their shows.
Theater by the Blind, a subgroup of CRE (Create, Reflect Empower) Outreach, offers services to veterans, the blind and disabled community in the L.A. area.
“Point of Extinction” which runs through July 7 takes place 100 years into the future where a supervolcano leaves many disabled and 60 percent of the population blind. As a result, the U.S. president becomes a dictator and passes a law requiring them to take a serum that will cause them to regain their site, even though she knows that 1 out of 3 people who take it might die.
