Godspell
Music and Lyrics by
Story Line:
Since its premiere, Godspell has remained an immensely successful rock
opera, breaking new ground in its stage treatment of Jesus Christ. Godspell
is based on the Gospel according to Matthew, and this modern and
contemporary retelling is a joyous celebration of music, mime, comedy and
slapstick. The score of Godspell calls on all modern musical influences,
including Rock, Gospel, Ragtime - and includes the hits "Prepare ye the way
of the Lord," and "Day by Day".
The story of Godspell speaks to the passion of Jesus Christ; to teach love
and joy in the hearts of people rather than hate and sadness. It speaks of
loving your neighbor, forgiveness, tolerance and celebration. In that vein,
we have a cast that comprises all the colors and ages of San Francisco, with
a multi-ethnic, multi-cultural, multi-religious and multi-everything-else
cast including 12 professional adult actors and an equally wonderful cast of
children.
