Once On This Island

Once On This Island

Set on the vibrant island of Haiti, Once on This Island tells the sweeping story of Ti Moune, a fearless peasant girl who rescues and falls in love with a young man from the wealthy side of the island. Guided and challenged by the island gods of Love, Earth, Water, and Death, Ti Moune’s journey explores themes of love, sacrifice, and destiny. With an energetic, rhythmic score and colorful storytelling, this Tony Award–winning musical reminds us of the power of hope and the resilience of the human spirit. Bursting with music and movement, it’s a celebration of community and connection that will uplift and inspire.
