Wish I'd had the chance to play Jesus in Godspell. Great musical to do.

Sometime in 1973, I was lucky enough to attend a performance of the legendary Toronto production of Godspell, which is still remembered as an early credit for a group of performers who went on to even greater success. That 1972-3 Toronto production of Godspell provided the first regular acting job for Victor Garber, Eugene Levy, Andrea Martin, Gilda Radner, Dave Thomas, and Martin Short. The musical director was Paul Shaffer.
Several members of this production left to form Second City in Chicago, while another group waited until the show's run in Toronto ended (488 performances, a Canadian record at the time) and then started the near-legendary SCTV series.
At the time, the audience was unaware that we had witnessed show business history in the making, but we did know we had seen a great performance.
Although "Day By Day" was the hit that came out of Godspell, "All For The Best" has always been my favorite from the show.
Anyone interested in learning more about the history of this production can look here.

... All For The Best was such a fun song (although it gets ridiculously fast towards the end and hence very difficult, especially when you have a simultaneous dance routine)...

Many have posted from Jesus Christ Superstar. But, here is my favorite song from it. the movie version is not the best I've heard, but still good.
