Children of Eden

Book by John Caird
Music and Lyrics by Stephen Schwartz
Based on a concept by Charles Lisanby
Orchestrations by Bruce Coughlin and Martin Erskine

From Stephen Schwartz (Godspell and Pippin) and John Caird 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."

A deeply humanistic work, Children Of Eden appeals to both religious and non-religious audiences, making it an ideal choice for any organization with a broad audience base. Created with modest production requirements in mind, the show is equally at home in black-box theatres and on large proscenium stages. The melodic, energetic score is a mix of pop, folk, rock, reggae, gospel, Broadway and powerful choral moments. -- MTI
