Music and New Lyrics by Stephen Schwartz
Book by John Michael Tebelak
Knutson Theatre, Feb 19 – 22, 2026
*Matinee shows on Saturday, Feb. 21 AND Sunday, Feb. 22**
Filled with familiar songs like “Day by Day” and “Turn Back, O Man,” Godspell is a joyful and exuberant celebration of life, compassion, and community. Drawing from the Biblical Gospels, a group of strangers come together to share stories and songs that transcend time—transforming a simple space into something sacred. With each parable and playful moment, the ensemble invites the audience into a theatrical ritual that’s both deeply human and spiritually resonant. All of this is underscored by Stephen Schwartz’s signature sound, which you may recognize from hit musicals like Wicked and Pippin.

By Kate Hamill
Adapted from Jane Austen
Knutson Theatre, Apr. 17 – 19 and 23-26, 2026
American Theatre Magazine’s most produced playwright of the 2024-2025 season has hilariously adapted Jane Austen’s classic work in this fast-paced, romantic comedy. With Bingley as a Golden Retriever Boyfriend and Mary playing ominous earworms in the background, Hamill’s version breathes 21st century life into this 19th century story.
