See history’s greatest story come alive with Godspell tickets. Godspell is a musical written by the legendary Stephen Schwartz. The production originally played off-Broadway in 1971. It was an instant hit, and its unprecedented success saw it move to Broadway in the early 2000s. The musical centers around the parables of Jesus of Nazareth and is inspired by the Biblical book of Matthew.
Far from dry, however, the production features bombastic pop-rock numbers which are deliberately intended to give the age-old stories a countercultural twist. Many of Godspell’s songs take their lyrics directly from traditional hymnals, revamping them and filling them full of heady 1970’s nostalgia.
Far from a work of religious apologetics, Godspell eschews theology and speculation to instead focus on the disciples’ formation of a tight-knit community. Though Jesus is a central figure, he is consistently portrayed at a distance. The heart and soul of Godspell is rather the supporting characters’ reaction to such a legendary figure.
Godspell’s predominant theme is the way in which small communities form and continue in the wake of both wonder and catastrophe. Godspell tickets let you see this monumental musical live and in person.
Written at a time of immense social upheaval, Godspell ignited both controversies and sustained interest with its unique depiction of Jesus as a hippie. The production was one of the most influential in dissolving the boundaries between Christianity and rock and roll music. The Broadway production was nominated for a Tony Award for Best Original Score in 1977.
