"Children of Eden, where have we left you?
Born in uncertainty, destined for pain?
Sins of your parents haunt you and test you,
this your inheritance: fire and rain.
Oh my precious children, try not to blame us,
we were just human, to error prone.
Children of Eden, you will reclaim us.
You and your children to come -
someday you'll come home."



Our musical this year, Children of Eden - the story of Genisis from the Creation through the Flood - is casted and ready to go.  For some reason this show feels like it will be a very significant experience for me personally and for our whole choir.  It's going to be a challenge; we have a lot to overcome.  But I think we are going to learn more than we ever dreamed we would - about ourselves.  And personally, this show coincides with what is definitely going to be a period of major change and growth in my life.  The dominant themes of Children of Eden are family, forgiveness, innocence and guilt, and changing as you mature and become who you truly are. Hopefully, the outcome of my life will in a way mirror the outcome of  the story.



"There is no journey gone so far
so far we cannot stop and change direction
no doom is written in the stars
it's in our hands.
We cannot know what will occur
just make the journey worth the taking
and pray we're wiser than we were
in the beginning..."
