This is a fun show to take your kids to see. I sat next to a 10-year old who was spellbound for the entire show. I loved the group numbers with all the animals (the children) on the ark. And for the last number, I wanted to jump up and dance with all of them on the stage. It was a fabulous production with some pretty cool computer animation on the stage for scenery. You'll love it and so will your kids!

I encourage you to disregard the cynical review in the Times. Did the woman know that only the six main characters were paid professional actors? All of the other roles (200+/-) are played by people who donated their time and talent to work on this event. It's a wonderful gathering of young children, teens, and adults who present a beautiful, entertaining, and touching evening! We loved it and will go again! Our children were so excited and entertained. It was a great family outing. We urge you to go and feel the grace of humanity that's so often overlooked in our city. Ignore the bitter few who can't see the love and beauty shared by members of our community.

This is a show with both great musicality and an even greater amount of heart. You will not be disappointed!
