When the RMS Titanic sank on the eve of April 14, 1912, the world focused on the inconceivable sinking of a ship believed to be unsinkable. Over time, we would come to know the compelling stories of her passengers. We learned the hopes and dreams, heartbreak and heroism of the various social classes who set sail on this historic journey—some to enjoy the luxury of the finest ship at sea, others sailing to a new life in America—all blissfully unaware of the fate that awaited them.This Spring, Voices of Hope invites you on board their production of the Tony Award-Winning Best Musical, TITANIC which sails onto the stage at North Shore Music Theatre for the first time. With a lush and stunning musical score and fascinating real life stories of her passengers, TITANIC is a captivating experience for lovers of both history and musical theater, as it explores the conditions, causes, and indomitable human spirit of the legendary "ship of dreams".
