Review:

True story, triumphant story. In the summer of 1904 a little French girl is orphaned in a shipwreck and sent to live with an embittered, empoverished woman in an Oregon lumber camp. The girl, Opal, can’t grasp the finality of death, and thus can’t connect with her new mother. Cedar Rapids native Rob Nassif captured this drama of awakening and unfolding love in an off-Broadway musical that won the Richard Rodgers Production Award and earned the description of “enchanting” by the New York Times. Nassif’s music embraces the lost child and leads listeners through this captivating and inspirational story.
