Godspell takes the stage in Huntington for its second performance tonight at 7:30 p.m. (and I admit prejudice, but last night’s show was wonderful - funny, touching and heart-warming, with some terrific talent on display).
Let’s continue our interviews with the cast - this time, let’s hear from a First Stage veteran - the talented Salem Carlton :
Q: What is the musical Godspell about?
Salem: Godspell is about the teachings of Jesus from the book of Matthew. It goes through from the baptism of Jesus to the crucifixion.
Q: Why did you want to be part of the show?
Salem: I wanted to be part of the show because it's a totally different experience with only 13 people in the cast and all of them being high school age.
Q: What's your background in theatre?
Salem: I've been in some shows with First Stage starting when I was on the second grade.
Q: What's your favorite part of the show?
Salem: The finale. It's a really intense part of the show
Q: This show depends on a strong cast working together - so tell us about your fellow actors. Are you having fun?
Salem: Yes, I'm having a lot of fun! Everyone in the cast is fantastic and I think as far as casts go this is a very close group of people because the cast is so small and everyone is around the same age and it gives you a chance to bond with everyone in the cast
Q: Why would you recommend this show to our readers?
Salem: I would recommend the show to people because the music is so amazing!
Thanks, Salem!
