THE ABBEY PLAYERS
PRESENT ‘CHILDREN OF
EDEN JR.’
The Abbey Players—St. Benedict the Abbot
Church’s community theater group for students
in grades 7 through 12—presented “Children of
Eden Jr.” June 14 -15 in Pope Benedict Center.
Based on the story of Genesis, the age-old
conflict between parents and children takes the
stage in this epic, heartfelt Stephen Schwartz
musical that is perfect for all ages.
The beautiful music truly brings to life the
story of Adam and Eve and the garden of Eden
in Act I, followed by the story of Noah and the
flood in Act II. The show featured students in
7th through 12th grade from Peters Township
and Canon-Mac, as well as a children’s chorus of
students in grades 1 through 6.
A gift card raffle and concessions were
available, and proceeds benefited St. Jude
Children’s Research Hospital.
