"The Confession Musical," features Emmy-nominated comedian/actress Chonda Pierce and famed multi-talented actor, singer, and Broadway performer John Schnieder. Based on the best-selling book series “The Heritage of Lancaster County,” by Beverly Lewis and written for the stage by Emmy-nominated screenwriter Martha Bolton, the filmed play is coming to a theater near you on February 20, 2023 as a Fathom Event.
"The Confession" tells the story of an Amish Family in turmoil when their daughter, Katie Lapp, discovers she was adopted, and her biological mother is an Englisher (not Amish) woman. Meanwhile, the woman, Laura Mayfield, heir to a vast fortune and on her death bed, is searching for her lost daughter to bequest her the estate. Standing between her is her gold-digging husband Dylan (played by John Schneider), who is plotting to claim the fortune for himself with the help of a hired imposter pretending to be the long-lost daughter.
While
the story is dramatic, writer Martha Bolton sprinkles in humor, mostly
from award-winning comedian Chonda Pierce as the maid and
internationally renowned British comedian Colin Hearn as the English
Butler. The music is powerful under the direction of multiple Grammy-nominated Dan Posthuma and songwriter Wally Nason. And the screen is
filled with spectacular visuals using twenty actors and dancers and one
of the largest LED screens in the country. Be sure to check out the main cast on the website.
