Proudly Presents
GODSPELL
Book & Concept by John Michael Tebelak
Music & Lyrics by Stephen Schwartz
Directed by John Fanelli
Musical Direction by Bill Stanley
Choreography by Jonathan Stahl
July 9th – August 9th, 2015
This immensely successful rock opera was the first major musical theatre offering from 3-time Grammy and Academy Award winner Stephen Schwartz (Wicked, Pippin, Children of Eden).
It is based on the Gospel according to St Matthew. It focuses on the last days of Jesus, and includes dramatized versions of several well-known parables. At once, a demonstration of joy, and a celebration of the family of man, Jesus's messages of kindness, tolerance, and love come vibrantly to life.
The cast are conceived as clowns, improvising scenery and costumes, and using a wide variety of games, storytelling techniques, pantomime, comic timing and varied musical styles to interpret one of humanity's greatest events.
The score, an eclectic blend of songs ranging in style from pop to vaudeville, features many beloved songs including "Prepare Ye The Way Of The Lord," "Learn Your Lessons Well," "All For The Best," "All Good Gifts," "Turn Back, O Man" and "By My Side".
The show opened Off-Broadway, on May 17, 1971, and has played in various touring companies and revivals many times since. GODSPELL opened on Broadway in 1976, it was directed by John Michael Tebelak (who wrote the original book for his thesis at Carnegie Mellon) and was met by much critical acclaim. There was a 2011 revival on Broadway in 2011. Several cast albums have been released over the years and one of its songs, "Day by Day" from the original cast album, reached #13 on the Billboard pop singles chart in the summer of 1972.
