Lyrics by Lynn Ahrens
Cast: Natalie Venetia Belcon, Monique Cintron, Jerry Dixon, Sheila Gibbs, LaChanze, Kecia Lewis, Afi McClendon, Gerry McIntyre

One stormy night in the Antilles archipelago, thunder booms, making a small girl cry in fear. To comfort her, the village storytellers tell her the story of Ti Moune, a peasant girl who falls in love with a grand homme, Daniel Beauxhomme – a story of life, pain, love, grief, faith, and hope. One night, Agwe unleashes a terrible storm upon the island, which in turn causes a disastrous flood, wiping out many villages.
