CHS Performing Arts presents production of 'Godspell' this Thursday through Saturday
Carson High School Performing Arts is proud to announce our upcoming production of "Godspell," the iconic and inspiring Broadway musical by three time Grammy and Academy Award winner, Stephen Schwartz, this Thursday through Saturday, April 13-15 at the Carson City Community Center.
Based on the Gospel of Matthew, "Godspell" tells the story of a small group of people learning to become a community when all seems lost through parables, lessons, storytelling, songs and dances under the caring leadership of Jesus Christ.
An eclectic blend of songs, ranging from pop to vaudeville, is employed as the story of Jesus’ life dances across the stage with dazzling new arrangements of such recognizable songs as “Day By Day”, “Prepare Ye the Way of the Lord”, and “By My Side.”
Directed by Andie Anderson and Andy Sonnemaker, Jesus’ messages of kindness, tolerance and love come vibrantly to life, featuring the talents of over 40 of Carson High School’s finest talents working both onstage and off.
Leading the cast is junior Wesley Sonnemaker as Jesus, teaching and leading his fellow cast members: seniors Carly Peckham, Kathryn Moran and Isaiah Williams; juniors Melanie Proctor, Leslie Torres and Charlie Moser; sophomore Angela Cirone; and freshmen Quentin Powers and Trevor Young. This very special production also features members of Carson High School’s exemplary American Sign Language program, led by Mary Anne Weaver, who interpret much of the production.
Performances of "Godspell" will run April 13, 14 and 15 at 7 p.m. and April 15 at 2 p.m. in the Bob Boldrick Theatre at the Carson City Community Center located at 351 E. William Street in Carson City.
Tickets are $12 General Admission, $10 Seniors, $5 Students and will be available at the door. At this time, we only accept cash or check. Contact aanderson@carson.k12.nv.us for more information.
