Review:
"
Just Around the Corner, terrifically sung by Fagan, is a standout song by Alastair William King and Jeff Edmond, and a very talented ensemble delivers the rest of the lively score..."

The iconic story of "The Little Match Girl" by Hans Christian Andersen comes to life in this brand new musical adaptation, set to a contemporary score filled with soaring melodies. It’s New Year’s Eve, and the Little Match Girl is forced onto the streets to sell matches to support her family. Cold and alone, her wondrous imagination takes her away from the harsh realities and struggles of her daily life. Armed with match sticks and music, she finds the ​hope we all need.
