Anybody know anything about this show? A theatre around my area is doing it, any help. Character descriptions of the lead girls would be help-ful. Please and thank you.

PS- Pictures would be nice too =)

I like Charlie Brown's hands... "It's like I'm being tied to the hood of a yellow rental truck, being packed in with fertilizer and fuel oil, pushed over a cliff by a suicidal Mickey Mouse."

I've never heard of this show either, but my school may be doing it as our fall musical next year.

Edit: nevermind...there's not really any good threads on Children of Eden.

I have a soft spot for this show after seeing a fantastic production of it where the set was a bunch of platforms and flats that were painted with chalkboard paint, so that the performers (including a bunch of cute children) were able to draw in the various surroundings. Very cool.

Check out this link for pictures.

Google is a great help too.

It can really be a wonderful production. Our local rep company did it a little over a year ago.

It's Stephen Schwartz's best show, I love it.

I heard people really liked it. What could be done with the set ?

Amazingly beautiful show.

Great parts, a lot, it depends on if your director will double cast parts in act one and act two.
