MANASSAS — The Rooftop Productions presentation of Godspell, the 2012 version, is a joyous celebration of what a true ensemble cast can achieve, together.

The original, classic 1970’s, “Jesusical,” from a young Stephen Schwartz and the late John-Michael Tebelak was retooled, in 2012, as “a masterful retelling of the original sensation with contemporary references and dazzling new arrangements,” according to Musical Theatre International.
