ROH Godspell production will dazzle, inspire

Featuring contemporary references and dazzling new arrangements, Rochester Opera House presents the masterful retelling of the original Broadway sensation Godspell from Jan. 2-10 with evening and matinee performances.

With music and new lyrics by Stephen Schwartz and book by John-Michael Tebelak, this rock musical production sings with an eclectic blend of music styles, ranging from pop to vaudeville. Told in parables, the story of Jesus Christ dances across the stage and His messages of kindness, tolerance and love come vibrantly to life through a parade of beloved songs; Day By Day, Light Of The World and By My Side. Sharon Asher Arsenault directs the Rochester Community Players in this joyful production, perfect for family entertainment.
