TEMPLE OF THE SOULS chosen as a Next Link Project for NYMF 2017
A tale of forbidden love where nightmares and dreams come true.
TEMPLE OF THE SOULS was chosen as a Next Link Project for the New York Musical Festival from over 200 new musical submissions. It will receive its NYMF premiere in the July-August 2017 festival.
TEMPLE OF THE SOULS is an award-winning musical of secrets, lies, and forbidden love.

To escape the intolerant world below, our young lovers run away to the Temple of the Souls where nightmares and dreams come true.
