On Monday, June 28, and Tuesday, June 29, Apex Theatre Studio will present the Off-Broadway classic “Godspell” at the Backyard Stage at the St. Augustine Amphitheatre for limited-capacity performances with distanced seating.
An instant hit when it was produced Off Broadway in 1971, “Godspell” offers a variety of musical styles and theatrical formats to make the Gospel of St. Matthew accessible to today's audiences. Its much-loved score includes the hits “Day by Day” and “Prepare Ye the Way.”
The production features young artists from five area high schools including Douglas Anderson School of the Arts, Atlantic Coast High School and Stanton College Preparatory School. Jake Moorehead, a rising junior at Point Park University (musical theater program), will play the role of Jesus.
Reserved seating tickets for Apex Theatre Studio’s “Godspell” are available for purchase at The St. Augustine Amphitheatre box office and at Ticketmaster.com. Tickets are sold in pre-configured pods (groupings) ranging from two to six seats per pod. Each pod is at least six feet from one to the next, and all seats within the pod must be purchased together. Additionally, all tickets are digital. The St. Augustine Amphitheatre box office is open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Thursdays and Fridays and from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on Saturdays.
