The Story


Inspired by a classical myth, SPIN is a modern rock/gospel musical that gives a new twist to an ancient tale.

Arachne is a young artist determined to achieve success and fame. Four of the Muses visit her, to give her encouragement.  Following her defeat in a local contest, and criticism from her father, the Muses persuade Arachne to leave her village for the big city.  When she arrives there, Athena challenges Arachne to prove her skills, then destroys the tapesty Arachne has created.

Crushed by her failures, Arachne vows never to weave again, but a new friend helps her to heal and reclaim the joy of creating.
