Orphan Train - October 2018
Directed by Lynn Wilde Concannon
Produced by Ann Langford
​Orphan Train is written by Michigan playwright, Dennis North.
​It brings together art and music in a beautifully woven piece of history and art!​

 
In the late 1920’s, close to a million orphans roamed the dirty streets of New York City. A very fortunate few were placed on Orphan Trains and sent west, looking for loving homes.  As the final Orphan Train departs the City, a last-minute orphan is added to the cargo – a mysterious little boy with no past.  The boy is guided and guarded by a “friend” only he can see.  Worlds of faith and evil, love and greed collide as the train makes its way to Kansas.
