CREATION STORY was Stephen's first stab at a full-length, sung-through musical. Written during his second year at Goldsmiths, CREATION STORY is a broad retelling of the events covered in the first part of Genesis and the fall of Lucifer. Entirely sung-through, it could also be called a musical oratorio. CREATION STORY was first performed at the National Garden Festival in 1986 and the following year at the Gatehouse Theatre in Stafford by a terrific cast. It brought Stephen to the attention of the composer Stephen Oliver who met with Stephen to go through the work, encouraged him to keep writing and sent him off to a publisher.

Stephen has recently revised CREATION STORY and the 127 page new vocal score is now available on

Score Exchange (version 18).
