Godspell In this issue of Chatterbox, you will read of the celebrations planned for the bi-centenary of the Parish Church building in Church Street. The celebrations will continue well into next year and a major event will be a production of the Rock Musical, ‘Godspell’ on the 26 th and 27 th March, in the McKillop Institute. Godspell (an old fashioned spelling of the word gospel) was written by Stephen Schwartz and John-Michael Tebelak and premiered in New York in May 1971. The play follows the stories told by Jesus (most famously played by David Essex) and contains well known songs, such as Prepare ye The Way of the Lord and Day By Day. While written for 10 characters, the beauty of Godspell is there is a place for anyone who wishes to take part. Castings will take place later in the autumn for our own production of the musical and a role will be found for all who come along. In the meantime, we need to put together our backstage crew, therefore a meeting will be held in the Parish Church on Wednesday 22 nd October 2008, for anyone interested in taking part in any way. While Godspell is a minimalist production and as such is very simple to produce, we need help with stage management, scenery, choreography, costume, make-up, props, prompting, catering, publicity and a myriad other tasks. If you have ever wished to be part of a production crew, but don’t know where to start, then Godspell is the answer. Simple choreography; outlandish costumes made up of clothes we all have hidden away; outrageous make-up, which is simple to design and apply; straightforward props all go towards creating a production that stimulates senses. If you can help in any way, please come along to the Parish Church, on Wednesday 22 nd October at 7.30pm. Many thanks. Eat Fresh !! Eat Local !! Cucina Minucci at the Junction, Lochwinnoch.
