Horizons of Gold is a new musical inspired by the biblical narrative of Ruth, beautifully and brilliantly paralleling many of the events that occur in that story. Horizons is a deeply compelling tale, set in the heartland of America during the Great Depression. Rose is a young migrant, abandoned and lost in turbulent 1930s California. She clings to Margaret, a Kansas farm wife displaced by the Dust Bowl. Together they grieve lost family and search for home and healing in the midst of unrelenting hardships. Full orchestrations and soaring melodies take us to the sweeping wheat fields of the Great Plains. This thoughtful script is packed with heart-rending drama, endearing humor, and gentle romance.
