Anybody remember Godspell?

[janny108]

I wrote this in Advice forum, I was wondering who all saw Godspell, liked it, how did it affect you?

I rented it from NEtflix, and hadn't seen it since I was around 20 or so! That's going waaaaay back I know. It was something that was helped me decide I wanted to be saved!

But sadly, I looked up some people who were in it on google. Some of the actors passed on, I just pray that they made it right with God before they did die. They were amazing!

I have never seen Godspell...but I did have the soundtrack. I want to see it.

My school put on a performance of it in their Spring season... definitely one of the things that helped me cement my relationship with God. I think it's awesome, myself.

Saw it. Enjoyed it. The only affect it had was that I couldn't get Day By Day out of my head for weeks!

I actually did godspell for a musical theatre workshop and it was my absolute favorite musical to perform in. Because there wasn't enough people in the show we played multiple characters and i was lucky enough to be able to sing Turn Back old man and oh bless the lord my soul they were so much fun to do!!

I have the Pheonix soundtrack (I believe it's from 2003.) One of my friends worked at the theatre where it was being performed, and he got me the soundtrack and playbook. I LOVE Godspell.

I don't remember it too well... I only played the role of Jesus last April!!

It is an amazing show, especially from the perspective of the son of God. Jesus' crucifixion becomes a lot more personal when you're the one that's having to die.

My high school's Fine Art Department's Spring Musical production is Godspell this year. Too bad that I am two states away so I wont be able to go see it

Definitely love it. Wasn't aware there was a movie out, though! I'll have to go pick that one up.

 

[KomissarSteve]

have the new off-broadway soundtrack, but have not seen the movie, is it good?

Which new off-Broadway cast? The 2000 one? (or was it 2001? The one with Shoshana Bean singing "Bless the Lord," anyway)

Either way, magnificent cast, magnificent show. "We Beseech Thee" is so much fun, it's obscene.

I seen Godspell way back in 1981 at the local college. Man, I loved it. I had tears at the end.


I just received the film version of Godspell from Netflix. Haven't seen it yet though.
