Earlier this week a friend invited me to attend the performance of Godspell being put on by the students of a community college about 30 to 45 minutes drive away. Last night we went. Neither one of us had ever seen Godspell so we didn’t know exactly what to expect. We learned it was based on the gospel of Matthew. I had a concern that the music would be rock and loud and nothing I would like. I was pleasantly surprised.
The cast of about 10 young people were all very talented. There were some GOOD voices in that troop. One girl must have had dance training in her background because of the way she moved. To my surprise — relief — the music was very easy to listen to. I was surprised when I heard “Day By Day.” That was the one song I recognized. I had no idea it was from this musical.
I came home after having had a very pleasant evening with my friend, having expanded my life in a new direction.
