"The beginnings of a very exciting new age of theatre... St. Anne Comes Homes is a marvel" - A Younger Theatre

St. Anne Comes Home is a new musical is written and composed by Jack Miles and told through original folk music.
London can be lonely. But on the steps of St. Anne's Church two people strike up an unlikely friendship. James has spent years running away from his problems, while Bridget is trapped by hers.
St. Anne Comes Home is a story about community, fear and forgiveness, that explores how reaching out might help us find our way.
