Godspell
Music and Lyrics by Stephen Schwartz Book by John Michael Tebelak
Conceived and Originally Directed by John Michael Tebelak
Based on The Gospel According to St. Matthew
A small group of people help Jesus Christ tell different parables by using a wide variety of games, storytelling techniques and hefty doses of comic timing. An eclectic blend of songs, ranging in style from pop to vaudeville, is employed as the story of Jesus’ life dances across the stage. Dissolving hauntingly into the Last Supper and the Crucifixion, Jesus’ messages of kindness, tolerance and love come vibrantly to life.
