Join us as we enter the world of a golden and verdant Caribbean island, where a little girl is rescued from a disastrous storm by four gods—Asaka, Mother of the Earth; Agwé, god of Water; Erzulie, goddess of Love; and Papa Ge, demon of Death. So starts the myth told in this breathtaking story of Black joy and sorrow, the aftermath of colonization and isolation, and the triumph of love against all forces.
Told with Caribbean rhythms and instruments, this Tony Award–winning musical is a testament that a beautiful story simply told has the power to inspire and heal all.
Once On This Island features a cast, pit, and crew of over 40 School of the Arts students in grades 8-12.
Performances are December 8th at 7PM; December 9th at 7PM; December 10th at 2PM; December 15th at 7PM; December 16th at 7PM; December 17th at 7PM.
