About The Writers
Susan Beyer & Donna Griggs…

The writing of “Ten Boom the Musical” began with a love of Corrie’s amazing story, then two sisters researching many of Corrie’s books. Lists of subject matter for possible scenes and songs were collected, and the actual writing of the script began in 1997.
