Music & Lyrics by Stephen Schwartz Book by John Caird (a musical) From the composer of Godspell and 2004 Tony nominee Wicked comes a story freely based on the book of Genesis. Children Of Eden is a frank, heartfelt and often humorous examination of the age-old conflict between parents and children.
