Godspell

Plot Synopsis

At the behest of John the Baptist, young men and women forsake their jobs and take up the mantle of Jesus Christ, becoming his disciples in a musical retelling of the Gospel of Matthew set in modern-day New York City. Using song and dance, the apostles spread Christ's message of love and tolerance as the time moves ever closer to his betrayal at the hands of Judas and, ultimately, his crucifixion.
