Godspell

Before Wicked, Stephen Schwartz burst onto the music theatre scene with Godspell, introducing his ability to discover new meaning in established narratives. Equal parts playful and profound, Godspell is a theatrical celebration that reminds us what truly matters, and in 2026 BMMS is staging a special charity production of the timeless hit.

Only one performance at the Bathurst Memorial Entertainment Centre, with all profits going towards the Central Tablelands and Blue Mountains Community Legal Centre.

In a world of increasing polarisation, social inequality and uncertainty, Godspell, with its themes of compassion and generosity, is a humorous and lively exploration of the value of community and connection. With rich harmonies, a live 6-piece band, and hits like Day by Day & Turn Back, O Man, the show’s eclectic mix of pop, rock, gospel, and vaudeville makes for an infectious soundtrack.
