ONCE ON THIS
ISLAND
7:30 PM
Winner of the 2018 Tony Award® for Best Revival of a musical,
Once On This Island is the sweeping, universal tale of Ti Moune, a
fearless peasant girl in search of her place in the world, and ready
to risk it all for love. Guided by the mighty island gods, Ti Moune
sets out on a remarkable journey to reunite with the man who has
captured her heart.
The groundbreaking vision of two-time Tony Award nominated
director Michael Arden (Spring Awakening revival) and acclaimed
choreographer Camille A. Brown (NBC’s Jesus Christ Superstar
Live) conjures up “a place where magic is possible and beauty is
apparent for all to see!” (). With a score that
bursts with life from Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty, the Tony
Award-winning songwriters of Anastasia and Ragtime, Once On This
Island is a timeless testament to theater’s unlimited possibilities.
