Erin Youth Players

The Erin Stage Company is pleased to provide an outlet for local teens interested in theatre and needing opportunities to learn and to perform in a supportive, constructive, and self-affirming environment. 2009 marks the Erin Youth Players' sixth season! Our productions are open to any and all local middle school and high school students who want to audition. We hire talented Directors and use local talent to stage manage, design sets, costumes, sound and lighting, and we produce high quality community theatre on a very tight budget - not quite Judy Garland and Mickey Rooney transform farmer Brown's barn - but close!

On Stage June 25-28, 2009

Godspell
Book by John Michael Tebelak
Music by Stephen Schwartz
Lyrics by Stephen Schwartz
Based on The Gospel According to St. Matthew

[View photos from the production.]

Conceived and originally directed by John-Michael Tebelak, with music and new lyrics by Stephen Schwartz, Godspell is one of the biggest off-Broadway and Broadway successes of all time.

Based on the Gospel According to St. Matthew, and featuring a sparkling score by Stephen Schwartz, Godspell boasts a string of well-loved songs, led by the international hit, "Day By Day." As the cast performs "Prepare Ye The Way Of The Lord," "Learn Your Lessons Well," "All For The Best," "All Good Gifts," "Turn Back, O Man" and "By My Side," the parables of Jesus Christ come humanly and hearteningly to life.

Drawing from various theatrical traditions, such as clowning, pantomime, charades, acrobatics and vaudeville, Godspell is a groundbreaking and unique reflection on the life of Jesus, with a message of kindness, tolerance and love.
