90 . . . Godspell GOIDSPELL The curtain opens slowly, the audience is waiting anxiously for the actors to begin. Though it isn't the opening act of a Broadway production, the ex- citement matches that seen in a Broad- way theater. It is the final night for the Marquette Theatre's production of Godspell. In a few hours the magic of the moment will be over. The work began long before this cur- tain rose. It started to take shape with rehearsals that lasted for hours over a period of about three months. The ac- tors rehearsed their lines and went through their stage motions dozens of times each week so when opening night arrived the audience would not see fa- miliar Marquette faces on stage but JC and his modern day apostles. They worked hard so a few hours would somehow transform reality. The students who worked backstage and in the sound booth may not be able to take their bows on stage but that doesn't mean their work goes unappre- ciated. They are the ones who please the crowds who marvel at the sights and sounds of the production. Michael Price, the director, spent re- hearsals arranging and rearranging his actors on stage as well as fixing their lines. He pulled the production togeth- er, but when Godspell opened to the audience he stayed in the background hoping that everything would go as planned. His plays usually go as planned and this year's production of Godspell was no exception. The mistakes were few, the audiences uplifted by the entertain- ment. The Evan P. Helfaer theatre is graced with talent and dedication to the art.
