For Peace I Rise The Musical
For Peace I Rise is the musical love story of American Civil Rights Movement activists Rev. Dr. C.T. Vivian
and Octavia Geans Vivian. When two young freedom riders fall in love, they are bound together by
more than a shared commitment to the principles of non-violent protest and a deep faith in God.
A Message From The Vivian Family
Dear “For Peace I Rise” Team,
The Vivian family is thrilled that you have created such a magnificent production to highlight the love of C.T. and Octavia Vivian, as well as the civil rights movement in our country.
The spectacular play and music have been cherished by our family since we had the opportunity to hear it while C.T. was still alive. He adored every word and every note, as did we. We wish your production team every success with the performance, and the important message about our history that it will send to all who get the opportunity to enjoy the theatrical experience.
We know that it will have a significant impact by reaching audiences who may need to know more about the struggles, passion, and commitments on the part of the heroes of the movement.
We thank you for your tireless effort in bringing this show to the public. We eagerly await your opening performance in Atlanta, and the eventual run on Broadway, where we know it will achieve ultimate success.
Thank you and congratulations. We appreciate your telling of our family story.
Sincerely,
Denise Vivian Morse
