The life of Francesco told in dramatic form to enlighten and inspire persons throughout the world was first envisioned by Francesco’s creator Richard C. Leach who sought to bring the story of Francesco to life for all audiences via the musical art form. a group of renowned artists were gathered for the work of creating the finest show possible for the stage. The show was put into a format appealing to eclectic audiences, from the spiritually motivated to those interested in excellence in music and drama, to those interested in a very extraordinary human story, this show delivers over a spectrum of interests as we travel the episodes of Francesco’s life.

The episodes of Francesco’s early life are interwoven beautifully in episodic form by the Oscar award-winning writer, Vincenzo Cerami. We view the youthful reveler, aristocrat and soldier who transformed into a man of the greatest convictions with regard to the brotherhood of mankind and peace among all humanity. Francesco’s life as poet, philosopher and soul mate of his life-long love, Chiara are spiritedly retold as we view their life and commitment together within the societies of faith they founded.

All the passages of Francesco have modern relevance as contemporary society faces all the challenges that were the theme of his life with questions of war and peace, globalism and natural conservancy, spiritual ennui and faith.
