PARIS THROUGH THE WINDOW
​Music by Leo Hurley, Book/Lyrics by Charles Osborne

Paris Through the Window is about the City of Light in her darkest hour, and the men and women who took extraordinary measures, through pen or sword, to preserve the world they loved.

When WWI is declared in 1914, expatriate American poet Alan Seeger and his contemporaries--- Marc Chagall, Claude Monet, children's author Marielle Mansart-- are faced with a decision: to stay and fight for their beloved Paris, or to seek safety abroad, in a sweeping story that reimagines the role of the artist as citizen, and redefines what it means to be home.
