FRANCIS: THE MAN FROM ASSISI

Join us for a special staged reading of a powerful new musical
portraying the life of St. Francis—a man who renounced
wealth, embraced peace, and devoted his life to God.

With a history of over 30 years of collaboration, Allen Pote, composer and co-founder of the Pensacola Children’s Chorus, and Tom Long, a Cincinnati-based playwright and Christian theatre director, bring the story of St. Francis to life with a heartfelt staged reading—no costumes, no sets, just powerful words and music.

When: Saturday, August 9
7:00 PM start, doors will open at 6:30 PM

Where: Ashmore Auditorium
Pensacola State College
1000 College Boulevard, Bldg. 8
Pensacola, Florida 32504
