Contemporary Musical Dramas

Youth led. God Inspired. Sonshine Productions is a musical drama ministry based in Columbus, Ohio, rehearsing at Bethel International United Methodist Church.

Sonshine produces original Broadway-style musicals that are based on both Old and New Testament stories. Full costuming, props, lighting, and sound along with an exciting contemporary musical score help bring these Biblical texts to life. Since 1980, both youth and adult casts have performed Sonshine musicals all over Ohio and across the country. 

Sonshine has gained a reputation for excellence and strives for professionalism and spiritual integrity.
