Chicago, IL: The Beverly Theatre Guild (BTG) is thrilled to announce its spring musical, Godspell – 2012 Revival. Directed and choreographed by Tor Campbell of Rogers Park, this production promises to be a not-to-miss rendering of the Broadway smash hit that originally debuted in 1971. Based on the Gospel of Saint Matthew, Godspell 2012 is the timeless tale of friendship, loyalty, and love in a masterful retelling of the original sensation. It uses song, dance, and a variety of storytelling techniques to relay the parables that Jesus shared with his disciples. Filled with high spirited musical styles ranging from pop to vaudeville, this theatrical celebration is a reminder that kindness, tolerance, and love should live on vibrantly.
Godspell was the first musical by award-winning composer and lyricist Stephen Schwartz, whose body of work includes Pippin and Wicked. The 2012 Revised Version has dazzling new arrangements and lyrics of its beloved songs, such as "Day by Day,” “Prepare Ye the Way of the Lord,” and “Beautiful City,” that will be humming in your head long after the performance is over.
This final show of BTG’s 2023-24 Season is produced by Tony Zawila (Scottsdale) and Richard Lara, Jr. (Scottsdale), with an artistic staff that includes Kathryn Cargill (Palos Heights) as Assistant Director, Sharon Mason (Ashburn) as Music Director, Michael Barr-Schinzel (Beverly) as Assistant Music Director, and Britta Schlicht (Roscoe Village) as Assistant Choreographer.
Starring in the lead role as Jesus will be Sterlin Johnson of Forest Park. The role of John the Baptist/Judas will be played by Ben Walker of Blue Island. The extremely talented ensemble cast consists of Rachel Berlinski (Worth), Lauren Bourret (Mt. Greenwood), Andy Breitbarth (Evergreen Park), Katie Beth Davis (Andersonville), Macoe Davis (Andersonville), Michael Gerardi (Beverly), Kallie Givens (Washington Heights), Hannah Hayes (Oak Lawn), Hannah Kennedy (Beverly), Betty Kort (Evergreen Park), Meg Massaro (Beverly), Sydney Milligan (Calumet Heights), Dan Murphy (Darien), Rose Murphy (Kenwood), Danielle O’Malley (Mt. Greenwood), Victoria Sanders (Ashburn), Joelle Singer Jensen (South Loop), Paul Wagner (Hammond, IN), Leandra Ward (Steger), and Gretchen Woell (Lakeview).

Second Church of Christ, Scientist

The waters in our country have been muddied with hate, fear, and division. What are we going to do about it? Join Cynthia, Beckie Menzie, and Irwin Berkowitz as she traces where we’ve been and how we got here, finding truth, compassion, and humor along the way.
“Bridge Over Muddied Waters was awarded the Chicago Cabaret Performers Advocacy Award, and it is easy to see why. Through careful song selection and Ms. Clarey’s own written words, the musical cabaret details her reflections on political and societal unrest in this country. With this cabaret theater, the singing actress comments on the Black experience, politics, presidents, Washington D.C., activism and activists, legends, and leaders, and her encounters with prejudice, micro-aggressions, and just plain old garden variety ignorance…These personal stories make Bridge Over Muddied Waters more than good theater – they make it important theater.”

Viva, a superstar singer, Michigander and pop-icon (whose career spans four decades), returns to her hometown and to her just-as-aging ex, Mortenson Miller. Is the return out of generosity or revenge? Content Warning: songs, style, and possibly killer wolverines. Performed—with songs!—in The Conspirators’ inimitable style. 
 
Though the rest of the cast of Viva la Mort is yet to be determined, the plum titular role of Viva will be performed by triple-threat and stalwart Conspirator Libby Conkle (she/her).
 
The production crew includes: Wm. Bullion (he/him, director); Sid Feldman (he/him, playwright, producer and style coach); Amee Binder (she/her, choreographer); Mary Spencer (she/her, music director); Tommi Zender (he/him, arranger); Christine Watt (she/her, dramaturg); Eric Luchen (he/him, scenic designer); Jonathan Berg-Einhorn (he/him, assoc. scenic designer); Mike McShane (he/him, lighting designer); Elizabeth Monti (she/her, costume designer); Sebby Woldt (they/them, sound designer), Leo Bassow (he/him, props designer) and Matthew Bonaccorso (he/him, stage manager).
