Rationale

The importance of a Project of this nature is overwhelming! In today’s society, 

children and teenagers are at risk! And for the most part, adults are no longer 

themselves either. The constant exposure to drugs, sex, violent/immoral mass media, 

negative music, and crime are robbing our youth of their childhood, while stripping 

society of its basic intrinsic values. That integral part of life representing morals, 

spirituality, positiveness, and hope need to be restored! With it comes the equilibrium 

necessary to enhance a sense of wellbeing, unity and harmony within people. 

The very definition of Quintessence (1; That which is in its purest and most 

concentrated form, 2; It is the fifth element, ‘above’ Earth, Wind, Fire, and Water the 

ethereal, analyses and assesses the intellectual, imaginative, and universal 

properties of the human Soul. Each of the nine major Characters presented in this Play 

quantify and qualify the very essence of Life, as we know it.

Additionally, “Q” promotes oneness and unity of various nationalities, while 

recognizing and cherishing ethnic differences. Quintessence is a “live” illustration

that the secrets of the Universe are contained within each and every one of us.

Quintessence…The Musical! More than a Play and Film, it is an experience.
