If you watched, yawned and suffered through the Grammys last Monday evening as Wendy and I did and grimaced at the deplorable state of entertainment today, you would pray for us! You would cheer us on as we revive our marvelously “clean” and “godly” award-winning Messianic Gospel musical on the life, death and resurrection of the Greatest Hero who ever walked the streets of this earth, the Jewish Messiah, Yeshua.
Move over rap musical, “Hamilton” as the beautiful, much-acclaimed “Rabboni” melodies take Broadway by storm. This is undoubtedly God’s antidote to a sickening blight which has overtaken, gripped and degraded society! We first produced our artistic hit musical at the off-Broadway Perry Street Theatre for 88 performances in 1985 to the critic’s delight. We suspended rehearsals for a Broadway opening at the Minskoff Theatre then because as it turns out, now is the set and appointed time!
Sorry if the truth hurts but what have the sheep of the world’s tastebuds degenerated into? And, what’s next? What evil tirade against the goodness of God’s glorious creation will follow?
Well, we at Jeremiah Theatricals are taking exception to the whole unclean shebang and are mounting “Rabboni” up on the wings of eagles to take Broadway back from the clutches of darkness and evil for the sake of “whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things.” (Phil.4:8)
How great it is that we are flying to Memphis this Saturday to conduct auditions for the first step of a Broadway revival of “Rabboni.” Come to Memphis on April 15th, 16th and 17th at the Colonial Baptist Church and see the outstanding Messianic artist, Jonathan Settel, cut his dramatic teeth on his exciting premiere performance of the role of Mendel Moskowitz, the Russian-Jewish fruit and vegetable merchant from Brooklyn!
