Musician/Composer(s):
Maury Yeston
Lyricist(s):
Maury Yeston
Let there be laughter! The first five books of the Old Testament get a good-natured ribbing in this hysterical tribute to all of those ordinary, everyday people who didn’t make it into the Bible. Unremarkable though they may be, these hardy Biblical bystanders somehow survive calamity after calamity in outrageous fashion, inventing some useful and practical devices along the way (including the Life Saver – the candy, that is), escaping enslavement in ancient Egypt and helping a young man named Cain find his redemption. An ensemble show for a cast of strong singers and comic actors, “In The Beginning” features a riotous book by David Hahn and a clever, high-spirited score by Maury Yeston, the Tony® Award-winning composer/lyricist of “Nine,” “Phantom,” “Grand Hotel” and “Titanic.” Filled with one-liners and hilarious situations galore, “In The Beginning” is a non-denominational crowd-pleaser for the religious, the irreligious and anyone who just wants to have a good time!
