Children Of Eden Cast Announced

Natasha O'Brien and Stephen Barry. The producers of the upcoming revival of the musical Children Of Eden at the Union Theatre have today released information on the casting of the show.

Inspired by the Book of Genesis, Children of Eden tells the timeless story of what it means to be a parent. From the moment you bring a child into the world everything changes; you learn to protect, cherish, and love unconditionally.
