Once on this Island
by book and lyrics by Lynn Ahrens and music by Stephen Flaherty.
Based on the 1985 novel My Love, My Love; or, The Peasant Girl by Rosa Guy
Directed by Tony Frangipane, “Once On This Island” is a story of hope, struggle and rebirth, a musical with lyrics by Lynn Ahrens, and music by Stephen Flaherty. It is a lyrical love story of two island people brought together and torn apart by fortune and fate. With Musical Direction by Gina Salvia and Choreography by Keven Campbell and Eliana K-Lichtman
Based on the novel “My Love, My Love,” by Rosa Guy, “Once On This Island” was first produced in 1990 at Playwrights Horizons in Manhattan; it then moved to Broadway’s Booth Theatre for a run of nearly 500 performances. New York Times columnist Frank Rich wrote, a “Caribbean fairy tale told in rousing song and dance, this show is a joyous marriage of the slick and the folkloric, of the hard-nosed sophistication of Broadway musical theater and the indigenous culture of a tropical isle.”
