Saturday, March 14, 7:30Pm, Sunday, March 15, 3Pm, Friday, March 20, 7:30Pm & Saturday, March 21, 3Pm Starring the future, today! Book by Music & Lyrics by JOHN CAIRD STEPHEN SCHWARTZ Based on a concept by CHARLES LISANBY Orchestrations by BRUCE COUGHLIN & MARTIN ERSKINE Saturday, March 14, 7:30pm, Sunday, March 15, 3pm, Friday, March 20, 7:30pm & Saturday, March 21, 3pm Children of Eden TMTO sponsored by Season sponsored by from CRATERIAN PERFORMANCES presents the the EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR ur story begins in the beginning, with God’s creative nature and desire to be in relationship with his children. OPerhaps you don’t believe in the Biblical narrative (with which Stephen Schwartz, as composer and storyteller, takes consider- production of able liberties), but you might have children and find “Father’s” hopes and desires for his children relatable. Or perhaps you have siblings. You certainly have parents. And so, one way or another, you’re included in this story. It’s about you. It’s about all of us. It’s about our frailties and foibles, our struggles and failures, and it’s about our curiosity, ambitions and determination to live life the way we choose. It is also, like the Bible itself, ultimately a story about hope, love and redemption. When we don’t measure up, it takes someone else’s love us to lift us up. The meaning and message in all of this is timeless, and so director Cailey McCandless cast a vision for the show that unmoors it from ancient settings. And you might notice there are very few parallel lines in the show’s design... mostly intersecting angles, because life and our relationships tend to work that way. None of us gets to walk a straight line very long before we change directions, either by choice or circumstance. Book by Music & Lyrics by Children of Eden isn’t a typical TMTO production. All of our shows, no matter how light-hearted, have a moral. But Children of Eden has gravitas. We hope JOHN CAIRD STEPHEN SCHWARTZ it challenges you to consider what it means to be in the human family, inextricably linked to each other. Surely, only then, can we rediscover Eden. Based on a concept by CHARLES LISANBY – Stephen McCandless Orchestrations by BRUCE COUGHLIN & MARTIN ERSKINE Directed and Choreographed by CAILEY McCANDLESS Vocal Direction by DANIKA LOCEY Assistant Direction by BRIANNA GOWLAND Costume Design by SUE QUACKENBUSH Set Design by GABRIEL ASH Lighting Design by MICHAEL STANFILL Props Design by MARCI KRULL Hair and Makeup Design by ASPEN DROESCH Stage Management by CLARA WILLIAMS Live Recorded Orchestrations by MTI March 14, 15, 20 and 21, 2020 Craterian Theater at The Collier Center Medford, Oregon Children of Eden is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI).

  • Disney Musicals in Schools Puts Students in the Spotlight Onstage at Overture Center for the Arts
    MEDIA ALERT For immediate release: Friday, April 20, 2018 Contact: Sarah Knab | 608.258.4438 DISNEY MUSICALS IN SCHOOLS PUTS STUDENTS IN THE SPOTLIGHT ONSTAGE AT OVERTURE CENTER FOR THE ARTS Overture Center is among 18 arts organizations in the world collaborating with Disney Musicals in Schools. (Madison, Wis.) - On May 23, more than 180 elementary students from Madison will have the extraordinary opportunity to sing and dance onstage at Overture Center for the Arts as the result of a grant awarded to Overture by Disney. The grant from Disney enables Overture to offer the Disney Musicals in Schools program to three new schools in Madison this year: Frank Allis Elementary School, Leopold Elementary School and Nuestro Mundo Community School. The program is designed to create sustainable theater program in elementary schools. Through the program, participating schools produce a Disney KIDS musical in their school community and join in a culminating performance at Overture. “Disney Musicals in Schools addresses one of our biggest goals – creating equitable access to the arts,” said Ted DeDee, Overture’s president and CEO. “Through the program, we can create meaningful and sustainable musical theater opportunities for students who would not otherwise be able to experience it. By being immersed in creating art with their peers and discovering the joys and confidence that comes from the process of learning to perform, students are making memories and developing skills to last a lifetime. In addition, through the structure of the program teachers learn and develop their skills, setting up for long term musical theater programs at their schools.” The selected schools participated in a 17-week musical theater residency, led by a team of teaching artists trained by Overture and Disney Theatrical Productions, at no cost.
