Experience the beauty and power of Godspell the musical - a cultural phenomenon.
It’s 50 yeas since Godspell was created as an expansive, extroverted folk-rock cabaret.
Godspell is a light-hearted, positive, colourful take on the last days of Jesus and is loosely based on the Gospel of St. Matthew.

The all-ages show relates parables using song, dance and humour in a series of fast-paced vignettes. Over the course of the show, the motley collection of people who gather to follow Jesus find themselves growing into a cohesive community.

Under the direction of Bronwyn Chittock and Musical Direction of Catherine Anderson, the dazzling young cast and live
band will have you laughing and clapping and stomping to unforgettable classics like the international hit, Day by Day,
and a parade of beloved songs, including Prepare Ye, Learn Your Lessons Well, All for the Best, All Good Gifts, We
Beseech Thee, Light of the World and By My Side.

Jesus' messages of kindness, tolerance and love come vibrantly to life delivering a block-buster musical that is an
affirmation of faith, a demonstration of joy, and a celebration of our common humanity. Don’t miss it!
