CHILDREN'S LETTERS TO GOD

Inspired by the international bestseller of the same name, Children's Letters To God is a musical that follows             the lives of five young friends as they voice beliefs, desires, questions and doubts common to all people but most disarmingly expressed by children. Sixteen tuneful songs and assorted scenes (some based on actual letters) explore timeless issues such as sibling rivalry, divorce, holidays, loss of a beloved pet, the trials of being unathletic and first love. This entertaining show carries a universal message which crosses the boundaries of age, geography, and religion.

As in the best-selling book, the musical is not specifically religious in nature. It's about kids and various events in their lives that lead them to ask a lot of questions -- some funny, some serious, some surprising.

"Whimsical and charming family-oriented production about the innocent joys and sometimes simple sorrows of growing up."                                 - New York Daily News
