Synopsis

Musical

Conceived by Carol Hall who wrote the music and lyrics to The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas this joyful musical took Off Broadway by surprise.

It is a tuneful warm and witty observation of what really goes on in the hearts and minds of people as they participate in a church service.

The ninety minutes of song monologue and poetry require almost no set and only one piano.

Done in a theatre or church sanctuary To Whom It May Concern is perfect for all church and theatre groups especially those with access to glorious voices.

"To Whom It May Concern is a genial attempt, cast in the Godspell mode, to rethink aspects of worship and the validity of Christianity in these modern times… Miss Hall’s ideas and ideals are refreshingly ecumenical… To Whom It May Concern manages to remind the observer, with warmth and wit, that true worship is not a ritual but an ongoing communication with the Almighty."
— Christian Science Monitor
