Jessica, Diane and Gil have written a beautiful, unique, moving and important musical called OLIVIA O.

As a Broadway veteran and teacher of songwriting for many years, I can enthusiastically recommend their engrossing story and fabulous melodies in this exquisite musical.

You will embrace and be heartwarmed by their lead characters -- something so rarely found in a musical.

Such good work. The lyrics, the story all come together. I read it and was immediately struck by how strong it was. It lit a fire in me! The story has so much heart, but it also has legs!

Olivia at the Foster Home

Olivia has been been released into a foster home run by former televangelists Bill and Nancy Collins. Olivia has been fighting to hold on to the hope that she will be reunited with her mother and meet Isabel. This is the scene leading up to her heartbreaking lament "Mama I'm Sorry". Her foster father Bill has dashed all her hopes by telling her she’s been abandoned and making her call her foster mother Nancy ‘mom’.

In This Beautiful Place

Set outside a courthouse in El Paso, TX, Isabel and Guy are cleaning up after they've spent the afternoon handing out information about the community help line. As they discuss the day's events, they are interrupted by a police officer who tells them to clear up. We see their relationship blossom as they both yearn for a "Beautiful Place".

An Immigration Raid

Olivia and Maria have run away from the foster home and have been taken in by a local family, only to face an immigration raid. In this reprise of "Cenicienta at the Ball", we see Gloria joining in to comfort the girls.

Olivia Meets Isabel

In this final scene leading up to the closing song ("Weave the World"), we see the community coming together and Olivia and Isabel finally meeting in person.

Women are Talking

Olivia's aunt Isabel has joined a local immigrant rights group who are facing an uphill battle to find and reunite separated families. In this song, we see some good news as the community of support seems to be growing, awareness is building, the story of Olivia is getting attention, and Isabel is stepping up as a leader.

The Detention Center

Olivia has just been forcibly separated from her mother and is in the detention center. Confused and not fully understanding what’s happened, she meets Gloria, a ‘street-smart’ older girl who is also detained. Gloria warns Olivia about the dangers (monsters) she faces ahead and enlists the other detained girls to join in by telling their stories about what it’s like to be caught in ‘the place between’.
