Saint Heaven
Music and Lyrics by Keith Gordon
Book by Martin Casella
Based on the story by Steve Lyons
A New American Musical
Simmering gospel, soaring ballads, and earthy country music give life to this passionate tale of courage, faith, and coming home. Saint Heaven, Kentucky, 1957: Young doctor Thom Rivers returns to his hometown for his father's funeral, intending only to settle affairs and move on. But when he's faced with the friends and family he left behind, and he falls for a charismatic young woman with a special spiritual gift, he's forced to choose between his new life and the old home town that needs him.
A spirited country/gospel/R&B score propels this intimate and inspiring love story.
