Godspell was the first major musical theatre offering from three-time Grammy and Academy Award winner, Stephen Schwartz (Wicked, Pippin, Children of Eden); and it took the world by storm. Led by the international hit, "Day by Day," Godspell features a parade of beloved songs, including "Prepare Ye the Way of the Lord," "Learn Your Lessons Well," "All for the Best," "All Good Gifts," "Turn Back, O Man" and "By My Side."

A small group of people help Jesus Christ tell different parables by using a wide variety of games, storytelling techniques and a hefty dose of comic timing. An eclectic blend of songs, ranging in style from pop to vaudeville, is employed as the story of Jesus' life dances across the stage. Dissolving hauntingly into the Last Supper and the Crucifixion, Jesus' messages of kindness, tolerance and love come vibrantly to life. 

Boasting a score with chart-topping songs, a book by a visionary playwright (John-Michael Tebelak) and a feature film, Godspell is a sensation that continues to touch audiences. Because of its small technical demands and minimal cast size, it has become a staple of theatre companies, large and small.

"Seraphim Theatrical Entertainment produces an exciting atmosphere for all to learn, perform, and share their God given talents with the world."

Back in 2014, the idea that became Seraphim Theatrical Entertainment was to be more than just a theatre. It was also inspire people, teach, perform and bring light, hope and happiness to all those involved. Seraphim is focused on producing shows that the whole family can enjoy. It remains the joint creation of husband and wife team; Bridgett J. Farruggia and Stephen Farruggia. Together they started Seraphim from the ground up with nothing more than some pocket change, a dream and a lot of hard work. From humble beginnings of producing shows and classes wherever they could find a space, to their own building and art deco  theatre they now call home. Through it all, the idea of Seraphim has never changed, its just gotten bigger. Producing big city quality shows right here in the Black Hills.  Seraphim was created to personify the belief that all of us are born with God given talents and that they should be shared joyously and humbly with the whole world.
