A Season of Mystery, Music and Memory
This chilling mystery thriller by the author of “Rosemary’s Baby” explores the thin line between fantasy and reality, madness and murder. Students Susan and Larry, guests at the Brabissant mansion, are drawn into the impersonation of the dead daughter Veronica Brabissant. Once dressed in Veronica’s clothes, Susan finds herself locked in the role and locked in Veronica’s room. Or is she Veronica, in 1935, pretending to be an imaginary Susan? “Like being trapped in someone else’s nightmare...jarring and (with a) surprising climax...a neat, elegant thriller.” - Village Voice

GODSPELL (2012) is a masterful retelling of the original sensation, injected with contemporary pop-culture references and dazzling new arrangements of Schwartz’s score. GODSPELL was the first major musical theatre offering from three-time Grammy and Academy Award winner Stephen Schwartz (WICKED, PIPPIN, CHILDREN OF EDEN); and, it took the world by storm. Based on the Gospel According to St. Matthew, a small group of people help Jesus Christ tell different parables by using a wide variety of games, storytelling techniques, and hefty doses of comic timing.
