ABOUT ONCE ON THIS ISLAND
The universal tale of Ti Moune, a fearless peasant girl in search of her place in the world, and ready to risk it all for love. Guided by the mighty island gods (played by Tony Award® winner Lea Salonga, Glee’s Alex Newell, American Idol’s Tamyra Gray, and Porgy and Bess’ Norm Lewis), Ti Moune sets out on a remarkable journey to reunite with the man who has captured her heart.
