Trinity Episcopal Cathedral welcomes The Center for Living Arts, as they present "GODSPELL" on Sunday, September 19 at 2 p.m.

The Center for Living Arts has been performing GODSPELL to local churches since January 2004. The cast includes Dino Hayz (Jesus), Tom Vaccaro (John the Baptist/Judas), Crista Ashcraft, David Burke, Gordon Ehler, Lisa Ehler, Nicole Gabriel, Tina Hayz, and Rachelle Walljasper. The live pit includes Terry Reiter (drums), John Korn(keyboard), and Alan Morrison (guitar/bass).

GODSPELL was conceived and originally directed by John Michael Tebelak, and offers music and new lyrics by Stephen Schwartz. It is based primarily on the Gospel According to St. Matthew, in which the audience sees the parables of Jesus come humanly and hearteningly to life. The show also touchingly presents the story of Jesus' last moments beginning with the Last Supper.

The production uses scarce sets and focuses more of the story of a group of people coming together to create a loving community. The messages of peace, love and forgiveness dominate this uplifting, entertaining and touching story.

The public is invited to attend. A freewill offering will benefit the Churches United and their feeding ministries in the Quad Cities.
