Current Projects
We invest in shows you want your family and friends to see!
That may mean Broadway. But it might also include shows being produced around the country, maybe even in your local theatre. Our goals are to bring quality to shows to you. And yes, we do want to see faith and family friendly shows on Broadway! That is a big stage, and we want to see our values produced there as well.
Below are shows I am currently raising capital to fund.
Rise, the Bonhoeffer Story
Written by Scott Wilkinson and Eric Webb
This completely new original musical depicts the true story of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a German Lutheran Minister and Theologian who refused to remain silent against the atrocities of Hitler and the Nazi Party. Bonhoeffer was haunted by the loss of his brother in World War I and horrified by the growing influence of the Nazi Party over the Church. He preaches his own unique brand of spiritual pacifism as a leader of the Confessing Church. Bonhoeffer’s work against the Nazi Party has him labeled an Enemy of the State. When he is forcibly conscripted into Hitler’s army he flees to America. There he reconnects with his friend from the Abyssinian Baptist Church where he sees that he must return to Germany and join the fight to save his beloved homeland and the people he loves. He joins the underground Resistance, aiding the Jews trying to escape the Germany and is drawn into a plot to kill Hitler. This is directly at odds with his own pacificism. Ultimately Bonhoeffer chooses to do what he believes is right, finding grace in the resistance and defying evil to his dying breath. This is a powerful musical that encourages the audience to identify where they need to take a stand and to find the power to do so.
