Godspell - 2000 A.D.
Composer: Stephen Schwartz
Director: Jonathan Thull
Jesus and the disciples meet country, jazz, and punk music in
the Cornell Lyric Theatre production of Godspell -- 2000 A.D.
Godspell, Stephen Schwartzs hit musical that opened
in 1971, is based on the Gospel of St. Matthew. The text weaves
parables and lessons into a contemporary narrative covering universal
themes of love, peace, acceptance and forgiveness, social injustice,
the corruption of power, and physical and spiritual hunger. Cornells
version trades the traditional clown makeup for an eclectic juxtaposition
of musical genres including classical, country, jazz, hip-hop,
and punk. Set in an urban park, the multimedia production features
a rock band, projections, and nearly 30 performers - three times
larger than the typical Godspell cast
