OUR SONG is a musical parable that travels with one family through the Transatlantic trade to Haiti, the shores of New Orleans, to Pittsburgh’s Steeltown, where we witness a legacy forged in the fires of history’s most trying times. The production is an academic and emotional musical journey through time, with songs and rhythms from the continent of Africa to the powerful soul-stirring Gospel music of today. Audiences will traverse through pain and sorrow, emerge into triumph and victory, and celebrate with an ongoing hope for tomorrow.
