I am going to see Godspell March 10th and I was just wondering how the show begins. I have the album and I know the opening is Tower of Babble but how does the cast come in and is there that " Ia m God " monologue? And I am seated in row B seats 205-207. Is there a possibility that me and my friend may be chosen to be a parable? I was just wondering. Thanks guys!

No, there's no "I am God" monologue in the beginning. Uzo suddenly runs on stage and starts singing the beginning of Tower of Babble and then the cast slowly starts trickling in on stage from various entrances, singing their respective parts. They are dressed in business attire and typing onto their cell phones.

You have great seats! Actually, the only time they pull people up on stage are those sitting in the lottery/cushion seats. But trust me, you'll be close enough to all the action and confetti!

Enjoy the show! :)
