Godspell was awesome

The heat was unbearable today and I would rather have stayed home by the pool, but a student had invited me to a theatrical production he was in and I really wanted to attend to support this effort. I wasn't sure what to expect as we drove up to this old church building in Bay City. A 'creative' sort of place, kind of a homemade artisy atmosphere and it was clearly evident there was no airconditioning. We sat in the muggy sanctuary- turned- auditorium awaiting the beginning of Godspell. I had never seen this before so wasn't sure what to expect. And being a pretty conservative Christian I worried I would be bombarded with some strange interpretation of the Gospel. Boy was I in for a pleasant surprise! Colorful, dynamic, funny, and yet such a clear dramatic presentation of the Gospel. What a treat! The music, the costumes, and creative use of stage and setting made for a most wonderful presentation. Thank you, Brandon, for inviting me. And a thank you to all the wonderful people who gave of themselves working together! Awesome!
