OHMPAA proudly presents the world premiere of an original, locally written musical play about the journey of a young woman who follows her heart to the bright lights and music of Nashville, Tennessee. In order to pursue her dreams of becoming a musician she leaves her home and loving family in the western foothills of Maine. While writing and performing in Nashville, along with her new friends, she finds out more about herself and her family’s past than she ever could have imagined. It is there that she finds herself back on the road to Eden’s Ridge.
