Auditions for GODSPELL at Starlight Community Theater announced for January 21 & 22



"Prepare ye" for the timeless and joyful tale of friendship, loyalty, betrayal and love based on the Gospel According to St. Matthew. A small band of misfits help Jesus explore different parables by using a wide variety of songs, games, storytelling techniques and comedy.  Originally conceived in 1970 by John-Michael Tebelak (when he was a student at Carnegie Mellon), Godspell was the first major musical theater offering from three-time Grammy and Academy Award winner, Stephen Schwartz (Wicked, Pippin, Children of Eden)! 

Directed by Dan Ashlock with Musical Direction from Elise Kurbat.


We will be casting two full casts: One Teen (12-19) and One Adult. Actors must be fully vaccinated (see COVID protocols in "Related Files").

Auditions will be held on-line in a ZOOM format.  Please make sure that you can join the link sent to you the day before the audition.  Each person will have an individual timeslot.
