Peace On Your Wings
A new musical inspired by the life of Sadako Sasaki, a 12 year old girl who
died from leukemia resulting from radiation caused by the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima. Sadako folded over a thousand paper cranes to fulfill an old Japanese legend that would grant one wish to anyone who would fold one thousand cranes.

Set in post-war 1950's Japan, Peace On Your Wings explores the lives of students at a middle school in Hiroshima as they face the terminal illness of their friend amidst their own adolescent drama. The musical score combines modern musical theater, 1950's boogie-woogie and rock and roll, and Japanese styles, including taiko, to create a unique, uplifting, and inspiring show. Peace On Your Wings teaches the lesson, "Ichigo Ichie," meaning "Today is the first and last day of your life".
