A very strange interpretation of portions of the bible. It is a show that relies heavily on its chorus and has many opportunities for individual chorus members to shine.

The music in Godspell is written in the folk-rock style.

This show requires physical performers with clowning ability and good rock voices.

Jesus (Tenor)

 

John/Judas (Baritone)

 

Ensemble Roles for 6 Men and 4 Women

Take on many different roles to illustrate parts of the story
