Free Viewing Godspell at the Straz Performing Arts Center 15 January
The David A. Straz Performing Arts Center continues their free Scene on the Green series with the movie “Godspell” on 15 January. This 1973 movie of the musical by Stephen Schwarz is the passion play of the Gospel according to St. Matthew, updated to modern New York with very inventive results. The disciples and their clown-like leader wander all over New York, more or less unfolding the parables and the proverbs of the New Testament. Prepare for the live performances of Godspell Feb. 9 – May 16 in the Jaeb Theater. The movie will be played outside so in the event of rain or inclement weather the film could be cancelled or rescheduled. Let’s hope that it starts getting warmer around here! Food and drinks will be available at concessions for purchase. Sorry, but coolers are not allowed. But you can bring your own chairs or blankets! SPAC is in downtown Tampa along the beautiful eastern bank of the Hillsborough River. It is easily accessible from I-275 or the Crosstown or a 15 minute drive from MacDill AFB. Parking is available in nearby lots or on the street on the northside of TBPAC.
