"The Prince of Egypt" is a sweeping epic of a musical with music and lyrics by Grammy and Oscar winner Stephen Schwartz (Wicked, Children of Eden, Pippin, Godspell), a book by Philip LaZebnik, and 10 new songs written by Schwartz, together with five of his songs from the DreamWorks Animation film. The show also features Schwartz’s Academy Award-winning song, “When You Believe.” Featuring a cast of 22 of Richmond’s most talented performers, this is the regional premiere of this show – you won’t find it anywhere else in Virginia!

Journey through the wonders of Ancient Egypt as Ramses and Moses, two young men raised together as brothers in a kingdom of privilege, find themselves suddenly divided by a secret past. One must rule as Pharaoh, the other must rise up and free his true people; both face a destiny that will change history forever.
