April 2004
- Directed by Kirk Buis
- Assistant Director, Cathy Mischuck
Background Information
Book by Tom Key and Russel Treyz, Music by Harry Chapin.
The "Greatest Story Ever Retold" is based on the book The Cotton Patch Version of Matthew and John by Clarence Jordan, in which the Gospel is presented in a setting of rural Georgia with country music songs, the final and perhaps best work of Harry Chapin. As this Gospel begins, they sing that 'Somethin's a-brewin' in Gainesville." Herod is the mayor of Atlanta and, inevitably, Christ is lynched by local thugs only to rise again.
