American High School Theatre Festival

As part of the American High School Festival Theatre Hillard Davidson High School from Columbus Ohio stage a very creditable version of Godspell.

It is very difficult to make this production fresh as it surely has been done to death, but it was, and there were a number of very good voices in the company especially those of Jesus portrayed by Chris Greiner and Judas, Scott Baker.

Most of the usual gimmicks are employed, the comedy routines were funny as this young company threw themselves into this productions.

The use of 'flight cases' to build sets was both effective and versatile and together with the brightly coloured costumes and a fine band under the direction of Carole Bundy, added to what was a really creditable performance.
