The Little Things You Hear Together

The Gospel at Colonus (with Jeffrey Scott Parsons)

Alex is joined by Jeffrey Scott Parsons to talk about the 1985 Philadelphia (Pre-Broadway) Cast Album of The Gospel at Colonus. Who knew a Sophocles play and a Black Pentecostal church service were such a perfect match?

Music by Bob Telson, lyrics, book, & direction by Lee Breuer, based on Sophocles' Oedipus at Colonus as translated by Robert Fitzgerald.
