Children of Eden

From Stephen Schwartz (Godspell and Pippin) and John Caird of Les Misérables comes a joyous and inspirational musical about parents, children and faith . . . not to mention centuries of unresolved family business! Freely based on the story of Genesis, Children Of Eden is a frank, heartfelt and often humorous examination of the age-old conflict between parents and children. Adam, Eve, Noah and the “Father” who created them deal with the headstrong, cataclysmic actions of their respective children. The show ultimately delivers a bittersweet but inspiring message: that "the hardest part of love is letting go." Children Of Eden appeals to both religious and non-religious audiences, and the melodic, energetic score is a mix of pop, folk, rock, reggae, gospel, Broadway and powerful choral moments with beautiful and moving solos.
