Description:

Listen to the lilting and magical music of a master composer while you walk with Father Christopher Joyce, a Catholic priest, as he struggles with the two women in his life: Angela and Holy Mother Church. Based on the novel by the same name, The Collar: A Musical submerges you into the passions of a collared man in love. For centuries, bards have written and sung about the most wonderfully fragile part of the human body-our hearts. They can be broken into a thousand pieces. They can be tucked away deep inside ourselves and never heard to beat. Catholic priests have hearts too, also tucked deep inside themselves. They are permitted to philosophize about love, but dare not "step across the line." In the midst of his affair with Angela, Father Chris is tapped by his clerical colleagues to be bishop. Glory and ghosts from his past haunt him as he searches for his God in the profound and profane. This script, written by a clinical psychologist who has walked the roads of Heaven and Hell with many clergy in crisis, sets the stage for a musical tour de force by an internationally renowned composer and conductor. Included in this book are the musical scores. "Compulsory reading! A compelling account of love's power over the mortal man...Characters come alive...what internal turmoil and anguish-all that inner tension swirling and deepening." -Jack Driscoll, Author of Stardog, How Like An Angel, and Luck
