What is The Musical Story of Jeremiah?

With world class flair, this new musical of great beauty, power and passion premiered at the Centre of the Arts, a 2000 seat theatre in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada on October 11-13, 2002. The following year, a successful Saskatoon, Saskatchewan performance resulted in the release of "The Musical Story of Jeremiah" Music CD.

Written, directed, composed and produced by Canadians, the artistic production and the 39 musicians and performers includes gifted internationals.

Set in Jerusalem in the 6th Century BCE., the musical begins with "Call of God" as Jeremiah is called to be a prophet and exhorts his people to "Return O Israel".

Adapted from the Book of Jeremiah, the story follows the chronological events of the last five kings of Judah. When King Josiah orders workmen to "Restore the House of the LORD", the Book of the Law is found in the walls of the temple. Upon hearing the contents of the Book, King Josiah commands all the people to serve the LORD and keep the Passover.

"Hallelujah Praise" and "Holy Holy Holy" are sung as the people remember the LORD God who brought their forefathers out of slavery.
