Godspell opens May 22 at Chickasaw Civic Theatre Exuberant, thoughtful, funny, sad, troubling and inspiring — it’s Godspell, opening May 22 at Chickasaw Civic Theatre. Through a series of parables, told in an anonymous alleyway sometime about now, the story presents the Gospel of Matthew in song, dance and story. Music and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz draw melodies and words from traditional hymns, but present them in a whole new way. The book, by John-Michael Tebelak, was new and surprising when it appeared in the early 1970s. Today it’s a classic. Guest director James Boykin is bringing the show to the Chickasaw stage, enjoying the opportunity to offer “a fresh take on an already incredible classic.” Curt Lilley and Brik Finley lead the cast, with Lilley appearing as Jesus and Finley as Judas and John the Baptist. Brin Allen, Marlee Boykin, Alana Carson, DJ Cobb, Katarina DeMoncrieff, SallyDodson, Kaydence Matthews, Tessa Moody, Miley Montgomery, Elle Partridge, Daniel Pocase and Will Spiers round out the cast. Godspell will be presented for two four-day weekends, opening Thursday, May 22, and closing Sunday, June 1. Shows are at 7:30 p.m. on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays and at 2:30 p.m. Sundays. Tickets are available via the CCT website, cctshows.com. Some tickets may be available at the door. Cost is $18 for adults; $15 for seniors, students and active military. Chickasaw Civic Theatre is at 801 Iroquois Street, Chickasaw. For further information, visit cctshows.com or call 251.457.8887.
