is pleased to announce auditions for its' upcoming production of:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;" align="center"><b><span style="color: rgb(191, 0, 95);">CHILDREN OF </span></b><b><span style="color: rgb(191, 0, 95);">EDEN</span></b><br>
<br>
Music/Lyrics: Stephen Schwartz<br>
Book: John Caird <br>
<br>
Director/Choreographer: Sean Szaller<br>
Music Direction: Rick Fortney</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br>
>From Stephen Schwartz ("Wicked") and John Caird of "Les
Miserables" comes a joyous and inspirational musical about parents,
children and faith... not to mention centuries of unresolved family business! <br>
<br>
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."<br>
