Dir<strong>ec</strong>tor’s note<br />
I have always adored the music of Godspell. It was one of the few musical<br />
theatre CDs that I could listen to straight through without skipping at least one of<br />
the <strong>so</strong>ngs. When began the task of dir<strong>ec</strong>ting Godspell I knew the music had to be<br />
strong but that wasn't all. This production was about <strong>so</strong> much more than the music.<br />
The real goal of this proj<strong>ec</strong>t was to create a sense of community within the<br />
cast. This community would be lead by Jesus and his right hand man, John the<br />
Baptist. Each member of the community had to fully experience their own journey<br />
to or away from Jesus.<br />
In order to better paint this picture of community I used what I knew best, the<br />
theatre. There is no other place I’ve ever worked or can even imagine that<br />
brought such wildly different individuals together to work tirelessly toward a<br />
common goal. From this thought came the idea that we would all enter the bare<br />
stage as an acting troupe lead by Jesus (the dir<strong>ec</strong>tor) and John the Baptist (the<br />
stage manager). The troupe has entered from a time unknown and a space that<br />
could be an old theatre or the remains of a circus. Either way, what is important<br />
to them is the message they have to get across.<br />
I would like to take this opportunity to thank my cast who has worked <strong>so</strong><br />
hard to bring the pictures in my head to life. I thank them for their patience, enthusiasm,<br />
kindness, commitment and unwavering ability to make me laugh. I<br />
must thank Bonnie Macloud who has not only made this production happen but<br />
has taught me <strong>so</strong> much in the process. Al<strong>so</strong>, I thank Dana Guidroz for her encouragement<br />
and persp<strong>ec</strong>tive. You are all the salt of the earth.<br />
So much work has gone into the creation of this production by <strong>so</strong> many people.<br />
I hope you enjoy, have fun, and learn your les<strong>so</strong>ns well!<br />
Meghan Shea<br />

theatre) is a relatively r<strong>ec</strong>ent inn<strong>ov</strong>ation, consisting of a simple, <strong>so</strong>mewhat<br />
unadorned performance space ... which we intend to use to expand the Young<br />
Actors Theater program as well as guest performers, experimental shows, and<br />
additional rehearsal space. Space we are in dire need of! Contribute to the arts<br />
and enjoy a good bowl (or two, or three, or four, or….) of gumbo at the same<br />
time! <strong>Se</strong>e ya’ there cher!<br />
