Back by popular demand, Godspell will be presented by the youth of Burke Presbyterian Church in a dynamic, energetic, and moving event! Conceived and originally directed by John-Michael Tebelak, with music and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz, Godspell is one of the biggest off-Broadway and Broadway successes of all time. Godspell played over 2100 performances at the Promenade Theatre until it moved to Broadway for an additional 527 performances. The score was nominated for a 1977 Tony Award and won a 1972 Grammy Award.

Based on the Gospel according to St. Matthew, and featuring a sparkling score, Godspell boasts a string of well-loved songs, led by the international hit, "Day By Day". As the cast performs "Prepare Ye The Way Of The Lord", "Learn Your Lessons Well", "All Good Gifts", "Turn Back, O Man" and "By My Side", the parables of Jesus Christ come humanly and hearteningly to life. Don't miss this chance to see the good news of the gospel come to life and renew your spirit as our youth act, sing, and dance their way into your heart. You'll be humming "Day By Day" for days to come!
