Godspell this Weekend!

The musical Godspell will be performed at South Church in Andover March 4 - 6.

Godspell will be back for a return engagement at South Church this weekend. The South Church Players will perform the timeless tale of friendship, loyalty, and love based on the Gospel according to St. Matthew. A cast of 35 from Andover, North Andover and surrounding towns will participate in the church's annual musical with performances scheduled for Friday, March 4 at 7:30 pm, Saturday, March 5th at 5:30 pm, and Sunday, March 6th at 2:00 pm. Godspell features music and lyrics written by 3-time Grammy and Academy Award winner Stephen Schwartz. Tickets are $15 at the door. South Church is located at 41 Central Street.

Proceeds from this year's musical will be donated to CityReach, an overnight urban outreach program sponsored by Common Cathedral in Boston. The program, for youth, young adults, and college students from churches of any denomination, gives young people the opportunity to learn first-hand about homelessness from people who have experienced it. Participants join CityReach staff in street ministry and offer hospitality, food and clothing.
