A nationally touring show is stopping by the North Kingstown Town Beach this Saturday evening, with a local connection to boot.

“Children’s Crusade,” a play by Scott Huffman which first debuted at The Hundredth Hill’s Emerging Theatre Artist Residency in Bloomington, Indiana last year, tells the story of eight kids from Utica, New York, all from a diverse background of ideologies and life experiences, but believe one of them is a prophet. After receiving a message from God, the group sets off on a journey from their cul-de-sac to the Holy Land in search of Him as the audience follows along with these kids leaving the only world they’ve ever known and discovering surprising things about themselves as they rely on each other to fulfill their ultimate goal.
