Godspell

Godspell began as a student masters thesis project at Carnegie mellon University in 1970. The original production was a collection of improvised scenes based on the Gospel according to St. Matthew and music based on traditional hymns. Producers interested in opening the show Off-Broadway approached composer Stephen Schwartz about writing new music and lyrics. With a new score, Godspell moved to Off-Broadway where it soon became one of the longest-running Off-Broadway musicals, before moving to Broadway in June 1976. It ended its run in September 1977 with a total run of more than 2,600 performances.

The show centers on a group of followers who are called to gather together to create a community following a very loving and knowledgeable teacher. By sharing stories about living good lives and singing about love, joy, gratitude, judgement and redemption, the group of disparate individuals band together with a common purpose to face challenges and obstacles as they are tested along the way.

Infinity is a unique repertory theatre company run entirely by area youth. Making its debut in the fall of 2003, it continues to showcase the vibrant talents of Westchester teens.
At Infinity Rep, teenagers are responsible for picking the material, directing, lighting, sound, and all the aspects of producing theatre. The students undergo rigorous training before they are allowed to participate in the company. Once selected, they work under a budget and consult with adult advisors before making decisions on how best to utilize their resources.
Infinity Rep chooses plays that resonate with youth, musicals as well as non musicals, one acts as well as full lengths, re-imagining a classic as well as dreaming a new work. Infinity is a place for unlimited imagination.
