Prince of Egypt
A story of faith, destiny, and freedom comes to life in The Prince of Egypt, an awe-inspiring musical based on the beloved DreamWorks animated film. With a breathtaking score by Stephen Schwartz, including the Academy Award-winning song When You Believe, this powerful production transports audiences to ancient Egypt, where two brothers—one born of royal blood, the other an orphan with a secret past—find themselves on a journey that will change history.
Through stunning visuals, soaring music, and heart-stirring storytelling, The Prince of Egypt captures the timeless tale of Moses as he discovers his true identity, rises against oppression, and leads his people to freedom. With spectacular choreography and deeply emotional performances, this epic musical showcases the magic of theatre at its most powerful—bringing larger-than-life moments to the stage while speaking to the hearts of audiences everywhere.
Join us for a journey of miracles, courage, and the enduring power of hope.
