The show’s producers have invited, fully formed choirs from all over the country to take part in a professional touring
musical production direct from the West End.

This opportunity to perform on the professional stage will see choirs chosen to perform at a local venue
across the country as part of the ensemble cast. Working with a West End cast and creative team, each choir will
be coached to their moment in the spotlight.

Choirs will sing some of the most popular songs from the show, on the stage of some of the UK’s most prestigious
theatres – accompanied by the fantastic Godspell in Concert band.

Producers are looking for mixed-voice SATB (Soprano, Alto, Tenor, Bass) choirs with an excellent musical and
performance standard and choir members must be a minimum of 16 years of age.

Choirs at each performance venue will be comprised of 28 singers. Half the choir will be static and the other half
will ‘move’ (not dance) and will be directed by a choreographer. Four dedicated West End performers will make
each choir’s number up to 32 and either one choir in total or two choirs will be cast for each venue.

Each choir will receive the expert tutelage of Musical Director Russell Scott who is at the helm of the show’s
spectacular new orchestration. Russell has worked in the music industry, professionally, for over 30 years
working in the worlds of Classical and Musical Theatre.

The closing date to apply is 19 December and full information relating to the application process and associated terms and conditions can be found here.
