GODSPELL, the beloved musical from Stephen Schwartz, the GRAMMY and Academy Award-winning composer of WICKED, returns to London's West End for the first time in over 40 years tonight. Russell Scott Entertainment in association with In House Casting brought back the musical sensation to London for one night only, tonight, May 19, 2014. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!
David Essex, who became an overnight star as 'Jesus' in the 1972 West End premiere of GODSPELL, introduced the evening and was later joined on stage by other members of the original company, Marti Webb, Gay Soper, Tom Saffrey, Deryk Parkin and Jacqui-Ann Carr.
Enjoy the all the good gifts of one of the most enduring shows of all time in an up-to-date, intimate, one-of-a-kind production featuring the Tony-nominated score filled with popular hits "Day By Day", "Light of the World" and "Turn Back, O Man".
The cast features Stewart Clarke in the role of Jesus, alongside Andy Abraham, Zoe Tyler, Katie Paine, Rob Houchen, Turlough Convery, Jason Broderick, Laura Darton, Shekinah McFarlane and Jennifer Potts, plus the Maida Vale Singers and the American Musical Theatre Academy.
