Godspell

Launceston Musical Society

LMS is proud to present Godspell (2012), a masterful retelling of the original hit musical.

Scotch Oakburn College - Performing Arts Centre

A mega-hit on Broadway, Off-Broadway, and around the world, GODSPELL was revisited and revived in 2012 by its composer, Stephen Schwartz, and the visionary director, Daniel Goldstein. With crisp, new arrangements and an injection of contemporary references, GODSPELL (2012) is every bit as delightful as the original; and its uniqueness is strong enough to allow it to stand alone without eclipsing its predecessor. A clever retelling of the life and teaching of Jesus Christ, GODSPELL (2012) takes its audience on a high-energy journey through the Gospel of Saint Matthew. With a company of distinctive performers at the helm, the virtues and teachings of Jesus Christ are explored through a variety of theatrical techniques. The tale of the Good Samaritan, Lazarus and the rich man, the beatitudes, and finally, the passion of Christ Himself are depicted with poignancy when necessary, and entertainingly throughout.Conceived and Originally Directed by John-Michael TebelakMusic and New Lyrics by Stephen SchwartzOriginally Produced on the New York Stage by Edgar Lansbury / Stuart Duncan / Joseph Beruh
