This heartwarming musical follows Black Beauty, a well-bred horse in Victorian England, as he passes through a progression of owners, both good and bad. The original publication of Black Beauty led to the creation in England of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, and it still speaks clearly on how we can treat animals—and each other—with kindness, generosity and respect.

The Ensemble is a group of 24 of the top young theater artists in the region, ages 8-18, who train with top theater professionals throughout the year. Acceptance to the Ensemble is by audition only.
