Director's Note

I first fell in love with this show (Godspell) over seven years ago, watching a children's production with some of my students in it. I immediately went out and bought the CD as I wanted to hear what it was supposed to sound like. Two years ago, while performing in it, I fell in love again. Standing on stage knowing that "this is where I'm supposed to be." That truly was a good gift.

Masquer Ministries was born out of that production and the friendships that came from it. I believe in this production and the truth that is in every word and intention. I hope that when you leave this evening, thinking about all you have seen and heard, you will say to yourself, "I love this show."

See you at the theatre.

- Ian S. Talbot (A.D.)
