Freely based on the Biblical Book of Genesis, Children of Eden provides a unique telling of the story of creation through the epic of Noah's flood. With a frank, heartfelt, and humorous examination of the age-old relationship between parent and child, Children of Eden provides a timeless story for the entire family to enjoy. With musical theatre hit songs such as Lost in the Wilderness, Spark of Creation, and Ain't it Good, this is an event theatre fans won't want to miss.
The show features book and score respectively provided by Tony and Olivier Award winner, John Caird (Les Mis, Nicholas Nickelby) and Academy and Grammy Award winner, Stephen Schwartz (Wicked, Godspell). The concert production will be spearheaded by Derek Van Barham (Director), Nicholas Ranauro (Choreographer), and Kyle Hass (Artistic Producer). The concert will be produced through a special arrangement between the Chicagoland Theatre Fund and Onesti Entertainment. Casting and creative team updates for the event will be announced soon.
We loved the show of talented performers. The music, and orchestra, were excellent and uplifting. And the message of Children of Eden is what the world needs to hear! Carry it on for the world to hear!
I really enjoyed the concert. The cast was great but David Phelps was simply amazing. It could have done without the under dressed dancers.
I was expecting a professional cast for the show, but instead the obvious amateur level of the performers was a great disappointment. The voices did not blend well, and were over-sung in some cases. Would not recommend.
Children of Eden was well done! There were some big names, but everyone did a fabulous job! I am so glad we had the opportunity to see it.
Score, voices, choreography all amazing. Hope to see this again!
I loved Children of Eden. Singing/music was amazing and the interpretations of characters with very little costuming was very creative. For the most part, the use of scripts did not take away from the performance. Had me both laughing and crying throughout the show. Excellent performance!
It was an amazing show! The vocals were incredible and the children’s choir was SO good!! Loved the show!!
We purchased tix on the Loge level center do that we could see the entire stage. When we arrived we were given different seats-main level due to the loge being closed. The seats were awful. I could not see and they were way off to the side. So very disappointing. I am angry that the venue did this and I had no recourse.
From the incredible cast…to the amazing score…to the beautiful story that encompassed it all- this production was a hit all around! Simply wonderful!!
