Godspell and Resurrectio Return to Asheville – Easter 2012

Asheville welcomes Godspell and Resurrectio back to the Orange Peel.

After sold out shows in Asheville, and successful trips to Charlotte and Wichita, Godspell and Resurrectio roll back into Asheville for another series of dates at the Orange Peel, April 6th, 7th & 8th.

One of the longest running off-Broadway shows inside one of the top five performance halls in the country will, without a doubt, provide great entertainment. Godspell, based on the Biblical book of Matthew, brings a playful and compelling look at the teachings of Jesus.

Godspell, the musical by Stephen Schwartz and John Michael-Telebak, opened on Broadway in 1971 and has been a wild hit for millions ever since.The Highland Acting Company will bring a fresh and relevant portrayal of the 70’s musical – utilizing modern art forms while embracing the original nuance of the Musical’s comedy and memorable songs, “Day by Day” and “Prepare Ye”.

The Highland Acting Company will also introduce Resurrectio, an original short musical telling the story of the resurrection of Christ through stirring songs, “Three Days“, “Mary’s Song” and “Go“.

This local acting company will deliver powerful vocals, innovative theatre, and a strong production- all with a humorous edge. A great new version of a Broadway classic – and a great way to spend Easter weekend.

STAY UP TO DATE! We’ve got lots going on, and we’ll have much, much more on the site and on the streets soon!
