This summer, journey with us to the French Antilles, as a group of village storytellers recall the tale of Ti Moune, a peasant girl who falls in love with the wealthy Daniel, whom she saves from death. Aided by the gods of earth, water, and love in her quest to be with Daniel, Ti Moune must face the ultimate sacrifice in this love-conquers-all folk tale. Inspired by Romeo & Juliet and The Little Mermaid, Once on This Island features a beautiful, Caribbean-influenced score, colorful characters, and a timeless story—the perfect summer musical for the whole family.
