Matthew. Eight other bubbly actors and actresses join Crimp in an unforgettableperformanceabout life, love, death and all the emo tions in between. This year marks the 20th an niversary of “Godspell.” Con ceived and adapted by John-Mi chael Tebelak with music and lyr ics by Stephen Schwartz. The pro duction made its off-Broadway debut on May 17,1971. In June of 1976 “Godspell” moved to Broad way. However, on September 4, 1977the musical ended its Broad way and off-Broadway runs with a total of 2600 performances. Andrew Edwards does a beau tiful job of directing the nine cast members in the Lakewood The atre productron of Godspell. The cast sings numerous uplift ing, spiritual songs in pop, folk, country and rock styles, while teaching of Jesus and creating a warmth throughout the entire audience. Crimp, in his por trayal of Jesus, is convincing and powerful, as he touches cast members and audience members alike. Perhaps one of the most com pelling scenes in this creatively touching musical comes during the finale when the cast comes together to sing “Prepare Ye The Way of the Lord.” One thing for sure, every audience member leaves “Godspell” with a tear in the eye and a smile in the heart.
