Inspirational... and FUN!!

What an incredible musical story! Tom Key is outstanding and has excellent comedic timing. The music is beautiful and inspiring.

The musical crew helps Tom tell a story in a new way, giving it life and meaning. Tom gives each character individuality and helps the audience feel the intensity of the story.

I was in the audience when it was being taped and I recall how blown away I felt at that time.

Over forty years later I still feel that same sense of awe. I thoroughly enjoyed the entire production as much as I did those many years ago. From opening number to closing, there is fun and much to learn.

If you've never seen it... do it now!
