As I've mentioned in this space before, I
invested in the upcoming Broadway revival of
Godspell. This is the first time audiences will see a full scale production of
Godspell since it made its debut on Broadway in 1976. (For my musical theatre historians, it debuted off-Broadway in 1971.) It's time for a new generation of theatregoers to enjoy Stephen Schwartz's first blockbuster show. If you are headed to New York in the fall, be sure to check out the production directed by my
Stagedoor pal, Daniel Goldstein, and produced by
NYU pal, Ken Davenport. Tickets go on sale
today with previews beginning October 13th and opening is scheduled for November 7th. (I will be there!) The production will be at the Circle in the Square Theatre cleverly positioned right next to Schwartz's other behemoth production,
Wicked which plays at the Gershwin. The cast has yet to be announced, but
a huge open call happened last week with over 1,000 hopefuls attending the casting call.
If you are interested in finding out more about the production, follow Ken's blog:
DAY BY DAY: The Producer's Perspective. Ken is documenting the daily activities of mounting the revival from 100 days until the first performance.
