Far From the Tree —2021

based on the book Far from the Tree : Parents, Children and the Search for Identity by Andrew Solomon

book by Justin Warner

music by Robert Maggio

lyrics by Kristin Maloney

Based on the award-winning New York Times bestselling non-fiction book by Andrew Solomon, Far From The Tree weaves several stories of parents raising profoundly different children with Solomon’s own unusual journey toward parenthood. The musical explores the profound and sometimes painful love that parents have for their children, through the lens of one essential question: “What happens when the self your child inhabits is beyond your recognition or understanding?”
