Director’s notes:

This production of Godspell is my love letter to the queer community. I have always believed that musical theatre can be a powerful medium for advocacy, and with this show, I am blending my two great passions: celebrating marginalized voices and telling meaningful stories through music and movement. Our Godspell is a story of coming together, of finding family. and of creating a place where everyone belongs. In a world that too often sidelines or silences queer identities, this show aims to be a space of joy, connection, and courage-a celebration of queer love, resilience, and pride. I have been incredibly fortunate to work with a cast who not only brings immense talent to the stage but who also shares in the commitment to tell this story authentically and bravely.

To everyone in our community and beyond, I hope this show speaks to you as a reminder of the beauty of diversity, of chosen family, and of the transformative power of acceptance. Thank you for joining us on this journey.
— Ryan Nunez, Artistic Director
