From Roger Nichols, the composer of The Carpenter’s hit songs (We've Only Just Begun, Rainy Days and Mondays, I Won’t Last a Day Without You) which touched your heart in the 70’s comes the music that will embrace your soul for a lifetime. Roger Nichols brings us a musical play for the whole family... to be shared with neighbors and friends. Starring Dr. Sheila O’Connell-Roussell and Dr. Jerry Rousell, Jr., a portrait of Jesus takes shape through the memories of Mary near the end of her life , as she tells the story of her son to the evangelist Luke.

Filmed Live for the first time, Herstory: The Mother’s Tale, was performed at St. Paul the Apostle Church in Westwood, California. This is a one-of-a-kind journey into a moving spiritual experience... Through the use of voice, costumes, masks and song, Sheila and Jerry carry our imaginations from one character to the next as Mary’s Memories are interwoven with personal accounts of individuals in Scripture such as John the apostle, Elizabeth, John the Baptist, Salome of the court of Herod, the Samaritan woman at the well, Martha, the wife of Pilate, and Mary Magdalene - and how their lives are transformed through their encounters with Jesus


The greatest of all stories comes alive in contemporary song form. ”Herstory” is as emotionally engaging as it is spiritually uplifting. For me it provided a kind of “connectedness’ to the biblical past. I found myself relating to Mary and Joseph as people in a way I’d never experienced before. My faith was reaffirmed by this beautiful work as was my true appreciation for the ‘human beauty’ in this epic tale. The glorious songs of Herstory' will move you to laughter and tears. They ware blessing and a triumph” - Paul Williams
