Photos from the musical Children Of Eden
at the Historic Cocoa Village Playhouse

----- ----- -----

These photos are from the musical production of "Children Of Eden" at the Historic Cocoa Village Playhouse during February and March of 2004. This was the third production of their 14th season. The show was originally scheduled for three weekends and it actually ran for a total of five weekends. It was my second show at the Playhouse and it was a great experience! I would most definitely do it again (if I could commit the time). If you have some photos of this production that you would like me to put on this website, just email me!
