This was a good and lively show were every member of the cast played their part some excellent singing and dancing but above all they clearly enjoyed themselves and this was transmitted to the audience who clearly had a good time throughout. A sizable audience clearly appreciated their efforts and applauded long and loud to acknowledge a truly spectacular show.

The original show was designed to show the parallels between the early Christian movement and the hippy culture of the late 60’s and early 70’s drawing on the gospel of Mathew for its story.  By setting this show in the modern era gives it a whole new perspective with greed selfishness and avarice far more ingrained in society it offers a real alternative albeit 2000 years old.  I thought the show worked on a number of levels and really made you think.
