Samson

Samson is the musical story of the strongest man in the Bible, who had the worst “Bad Hair Day” in history. With an exceptionally clever script, Samson has lots of humor and is packed full of spiritual lessons. The most valuable lesson learned is that we should never turn our back on God or he may take away our greatest strength. He can restore us though, if we seek Him again. Ten catchy original songs fully orchestrated using live brass and woodwinds displays an incredible array of musical styles.

This musical was in the top three best selling Children’s musicals in the country when it was first published. Memorable songs like “Samson’s Deeds”, “Great Things for God” and “Don’t it Make You Wanna Praise Him?” are a delightful blend to make “Samson” a perfect production! Many have asked “how can you possibly tell the story of Samson with a kid’s musical?” Come and find out for yourself and be utterly astounded!

God promises a childless couple they will give birth to a Hebrew Hero, who will clobber their enemies, the Philistines. So Samson is tricked by Delilah, an enemy spy, and locked up. A prisoner in a Philistine jail, Samson finally prays for the strength to “Bring Down the House” on his captors.
