Lincoln, New Hampshire – June 27, 2016 – Prepare Ye for GODSPELL!
Prepare Ye for GODSPELL!
After a whirlwind opening to our 30th season with the hilarious hit, Leading Ladies, Jean’s Playhouse is thrilled to announce the upcoming unveiling of our second show this season, GODSPELL, presented by our professional Papermill Theatre Company!
Godspell, an eclectic blend of songs- including international hit “Day by Day”- is employed to bring Jesus’s messages of kindness, tolerance, and love vibrantly to life. The entire production consists of parables from the Gospel According to Matthew set to music, as Jesus Christ recruits a band of followers to teach valuable lessons through song and dance. This vibrant musical by Stephen Schwartz and John-Michael Tebelak opens July 14th and runs Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday at 7:30 pm through July 30th. Two Wednesday matinee performances will take place at 2 pm on July 20th and 27th. More information on Godspell can be found on our website!
Stay tuned for the rest of our mainstage performances this season! Avenue Q: opens August 4th-20th; Altar Boyz: August 25th – September 10th; Steel Magnolias: September 22nd – Oct 1st; and the fall season closes out with On Golden Pond: October 6th- 15th.
Jean’s Playhouse is also thrilled to announce the second show of our IMPACT Children’s Theatre summer season, Hansel and Gretel! In this original play, desperate parents and a nasty old witch dangerously threaten the namesake brother and sister team, so they must stick together and use their brains to try to save each other! This whimsical tale will be showing June 27th through July 2nd as the team travels throughout the state. They will be performing at Jean’s Playhouse on Wednesday and Saturday at 10am. The entirety of their schedule and travel locations can be found online at jeansplayhouse.com!
