About this Episode
On September 28 & 29, 2025, Bernadette The Musical comes to U.S. theaters for a special two-day release. But how did this French production about St. Bernadette make its way to American screens?
Fr. Edward Looney talks with Thierry Fontaine, the international distributor who brought the musical to the U.S. Thierry shares his personal journey — growing up near Lourdes but knowing little about Bernadette, discovering the musical, and being moved to help share her story worldwide.
Together they discuss the impact of musicals, how American audiences embrace them, the reception in France, and why this story matters today.
🎭 Tune in for a behind-the-scenes look at Bernadette The Musical and what to expect when it arrives in theaters this fall.
