This musical novel brings to life the untold story of over 250,000 homeless orphans who were swept off the streets of NY City and shipped off on boxcars to every state in the Union during the late 1800’s to the early 1920’s. The songs weave in and out of the saga and tell us the story of three of these children who we meet at the age of eleven years old and follow their life’s journey .
