Children of Eden is a heartfelt and frank look at the age-old conflict between parent and child set against the backdrop of two of humanity's most treasured stories: the creation of the Garden of Eden and the Flood. Through Adam, Eve, Noah and "the Father," the blind sins of the parent and the reckless choices of the child are highlighted in rich, vivid detail. Stephen Schwartz, the creator of Wicked and Godspell, presents a deeply moving portrayal of tales that resonate in all of us, and through a energetic score filled with gospel, rock, folk and powerful choral moments, he paints a picture of both sorrow and hope as the final message is delivered: "the hardest part of love is letting go." Children of Eden is a joyous celebration of life and is an inspiration to all who experience the wonderful diversity and love of family.
