Greer Children's Theatre To Present "Godspell Jr."

Press release from the City of Greer:

The GCT production will be staged April 30-May 2 and May 7-8 at the Edward R. Driggers City of Greer Center for the Arts. Friday performances are at 7 p.m. while the curtain rises on Saturday and Sunday shows at 2 p.m.

The original Godspell was the first major musical theatre offering from three-time Grammy and Academy Award-winner, Stephen Schwartz, and it took the world by storm. Boasting a score with chart topping songs, Godspell Jr. is a sensation that continues to touch audiences.

A group of disciples help Jesus Christ tell different parables by using a wide variety of games, storytelling techniques and a hefty dose of comic timing. An eclectic blend of songs, ranging in style from pop to vaudeville, are employed as the story of Jesus' life dances across the stage. Dissolving hauntingly into the Last Supper and the Crucifixion, Jesus' messages of kindness, tolerance and love come vibrantly to life.

Adult tickets are $!5, while seniors, students and members of the military will be admitted for the reduced price of $12. Admission for children 4 and under is $7.
