    GODSPELL Musical souvenir program 1971 Broadway Gospel Matthew booklet Schwartz
    This is the previously-owned "Godspell -- A Musical Based Upon The Gospel According to St. Mathew" softcover program, published by EMT Corporation Publishing in 1971…
    “Godspell” is a musical by Stephen Schwartz and John-Michael Tebelak. It opened off Broadway on May 17, 1971, and has played in various touring companies and revivals many times since. Several cast albums have been released over the years and one of its songs, "Day by Day" from the original cast album, reached #13 on the Billboard pop singles chart in the summer of 1972. The structure of the musical is that of a series of parables, based on the Gospel of Matthew. These are then interspersed with a variety of modern music set primarily to lyrics from traditional hymns, with the passion of Christ treated briefly near the end of the performance.
