PILGRIM is a contemporary theatre work which uses acrobats, projected images and a renaissance/rock score to tell the story of a young man who has a dangerous dream, a dream that irrevocably changes the fortunes of his young wife, his town, and his own future forever.



PILGRIM is an adventure/love story that has been described as combining elements found in Cirque du Soleil, Les Miserables, and Tommy. It is about two hours long, with music running throughout.



PILGRIM is now preparing for a Los Angeles launch, with plans to move the production to New York and abroad. A design team is already engaged on the project. A 25 song recording, printed music folio, and other publications are also presently in production.

Press Info

Over six years in the writing and three in workshop and development, PILGRIM has had an exciting journey. In May 1995, Orel and Jaime Hershiser sponsored its first preview presentation for the Los Angeles theatre community. The response was overwhelmingly positive. Subsequently, three successful concert (non-staged) previews were mounted in California and New York, presenting approximately 90 minutes of the two-hour musical. The power of the work visibly moved its audiences, as they brought their own journeys to the story of PILGRIM.



Momentum for the project continues to build throughout the entertainment industry and around the world, as PILGRIM prepares for its imminent Los Angeles premiere.
