ABOUT THE SHOW:

One of the biggest off-Broadway and Broadway sensations of all time, Godspell is the musical retelling of the Gospel According to St. Matthew.  Brought to life on the UNK stage, this inspiring work by John-Michael Tebelak and Stephen Schwartz celebrates the human spirit and sends a renewed message of hope in a production set against the startling backdrop of the terrorist attacks in New York City on September 11, 2001.
