When literary editor Alice Murphy meets a returning soldier from World War II, her buried memories stir, leading to a transformative journey to understand her past and find hope for the future. With its stirring melodies and deeply resonant characters, Bright Star offers an uplifting theatrical experience that blends authenticity with unwavering hope. Recommended for ages 12 and up
