Godspell

Godspell was conceived and originally directed by John Michael Tebelak, and offers music and new lyrics by Stephen Schwartz. One of the biggest off-Broadway and Broadway successes of all time, Godspell is based primarily on the Gospel According to St. Matthew. Featuring a sparkling, seminal score by Stephen Schwartz, Godspell boasts a string of recognisable songs led by the international hit Day by Day.    

As a cast makes it way through Prepare Ye The Way of the Lord, Save the People, Learn Your Lessons Well, Bless the Lord, All for the Best, All Good Gifts, Turn Back O Man and By My Side", we, as audience members get to see the parables of Jesus Christ come humanly and hearteningly to life. The show also touchingly presents the story of Jesus' last moments beginning with the Last Supper.

The main story of Godspell is portrayed in the shows subtext in the way the players interact with their leader, coming together to create a loving community.
