The 1970's musical "Godspell" ... which has arguably exposed more people to the Gospel stories recorded in Matthew than any preacher or evangelist in history... is headed back to Broadway.
Interesting. The music is amazing. Lots of songs you'll be humming for days after seeing the show. They may be a bit dated, although there was an update done to the score in 2000 or so. The show is often set in a junkyard, but I've seen it done on a playground, and with a very minimalist set of colored blocks. Real fans know it was the musical banned from Bobby Hill's school on "King of the Hill."
My question: Moving a show to Broadway is big bucks. So is this another piece of evidence that our culture is more curious than ever about all things spiritual?
