CCM presents 'In The Green' musical Oct. 11-12 and Oct. 17-19

CCM Musical Theatre brings performance experience like no other to the Cincinnati arts community with the regional premiere production of Grace McLean's In the Green. Tickets are on sale now through the CCM Box Office. 

Originally commissioned by LCT3, Lincoln Theater, New York, In the Green tells the origin story of Hildegard von Bingen, medieval history’s most powerful and creative woman. This new musical by Grace McLean is the tale of two women on a journey that touches on the topics of death and beauty in a blemished yet fully lived life. What does it mean to be whole? In a small cell, a woman tries to heal herself and a young girl by hiding from the world. The girl, Hildegard von Bingen, will grow to be an extraordinary composer, writer and activist — but only if she can put herself back together. 

“The process has been incredibly experimental exploring different modes of storytelling, such as dance theatre, puppeteering, and vocal percussion," says Rachel Stevens, CCM Professor and director of the production. "This is a powerhouse night at the theatre you don’t want to miss."
