At its core, Godspell is a story about the building of a heavenly community. In it, we see representations and
tellings of the parables along with the passion of the Christ.
We are looking for a cast of 10-12 energetic Actor/Singers. 2 male, 8 any. MUST be comfortable both singing
solo and holding a part. Improvisation and ability to riff is a plus. Actors of either gender will be considered
for each solo. Due to the experimental nature of this show, we will be working with the material longer than is
traditional. We are seeking performers willing to experiment and go out of their comfort zone to tell this story.
Performances will be April 30th-May 3rd. Rehearsal schedule is TBD.
Please prepare a 32 bar (approximately 1 minute long) audition cut from either the musical theater repertoire or
appropriately styled pop/rock. Please come prepared with a backing track.
The following named roles are available:
Jesus: E3-G4. A happy, free, fun-loving spirit. Always cheery when faced with adversity. Strives to find the
best in all people and situations. Likeable to a degree that can't quite be explained, you just feel very
comfortable around him. People listen to and trust him not because they have to, but because they want to.
Judas/John the Baptist: C3-E4. INCREDIBLY charismatic. Very knowledgeable. Loves to spread the word of
the gospel. The most serious of the group. Disagrees with Jesus philosophically and ultimately betrays him.
In addition, there will be 8-10 soloists. The following solos are available:
“Day by Day” (C4-A4)
“Learn your Lessons Well” (A3-D5, opt.A6)
“Bless the Lord” (C4-A6)
“All good gifts” (D3-A4)
“Light of the World” (G3-G4)
“Turn back, O man” (A3-F5, opt. E3)
“By my side” (A3-F4)
“We Beseech thee” (E3-F#4, D5 falsetto)
