AUDITIONS for Children of Eden, by The Pickwick Players

From Stephen Schwartz (the Grammy and Oscar award winning
composer of the music of "Wicked" and several movies, including,
"Prince of Egypt" and "Enchanted") 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 large cast is needed to take on the story of the Old Testament
in this moving, foot-stomping musical. CHILDREN OF EDEN is a wonderful show to
perform for families and children of all ages!

Performances: will be mid- to latter part of May, depending on
the availability of the venue.
