The Garden Bridge: A New Musical (NYFA/DCLA Queens Arts Fund Recipient)
The Garden Bridge, with libretto by Jill Ohayon and music by Andy Li, is a historical piece which tells the story of a Jewish family and a Chinese family who are forced into the same impoverished neighborhood in Shanghai during World War II. In spite of fear-based prejudice, language barriers, and the constant threat of violence, the two families fight to survive and develop relationships with one another in ways that will change them all forever. The Garden Bridge is a story of community, resilience, and the triumph of the human spirit.
