Everyday Rapture is the story of a young woman's psycho-sexual-spiritual journey on the rocky path that separates her mostly Mennonite past from her mostly Manhattan future. Her life takes her from the cornfields of Kansas to the clover fields of New York (with a disturbing detour through YouTube). Everyday Rapture also features songs made famous by David Byrne, Roberta Flack, Mister Rogers, The Supremes, Elton John, Tom Waits, U2 and Judy Garland.

The cast features Eamon Foley, Lindsay Mendez and Betsy Wolfe.

The artistic team includes: Choreography by Michele Lynch, orchestrations & arrangements by Tom Kitt, music supervision by Michael Rafter and music direction by Marco Paguia. The design team includes Christine Jones (Sets), Tom Broecker (Costumes), Kevin Adams (Lights), Brian Ronan (Sound) and Darrel Maloney (Projections).

Everyday Rapture premiered at Second Stage on May 3rd, 2009. Due to unanimous critical acclaim, the production was extended twice beyond its limited engagement. Everyday Rapture has been nominated for two Lucille Lortel Awards: Outstanding Musical & Outstanding Lead Actress (Sherie Rene Scott).

Ben Brantley of The New York Times calls Everyday Rapture, "Sensational!
One of the year's most extravagantly entertaining new musicals." Joe Dziemianowicz of the New York Daily News raves, "Go see it! For the 90 minutes that Sherie Rene Scott is on stage, audiences have an unobstructed view of paradise personified - a wickedly funny, wonderfully touching show," while Michael Kuchwara of the Associated Press calls the show, "rapturous entertainment - a touching, tuneful and often hilarious tale"

The Everyday Rapture cast album will be released on iTunes on April 27 and in stores June 2010 on
