A Steampunk Godspell
The request from the director was to have Godspell be "moody, with purples and blues and no whites until the end". Using only gels, we created a very moody play and one of the most ambitious to date. Shadows were our friend, and the colors helped tell the mood of the ensemble. Several chases during some of the more upbeat songs were also incorporated.
Pictured is when Jesus is accused in Godspell and the actors were bathed in only red to symbolize anger and demonic influence. The lights were used extensively to convey the mood of the story.
GODSPELL was performed in May, 2017 at the Evergreen Playhouse in Centralia, WA
