When you hear the term "Gospel Music", why is it that you think of an African American church with a big choir or Urban Gospel group? What about those who are not Afro-American and yet full of Gospel music in their own genres? Is it less
authentic? Does it have less impact on the lives of others? Is it less appreciated?

Can Boogie-Woogie be Gospel? Can Rock and Roll be Gospel? Can Classical be Gospel? Can Funk or Rap be Gospel? Can Comedy be Gospel? What about Asian, Latin, African, etc. Do you have to be Afro-American to effectively sing Gospel Music?

GOSPEL MUSIC A-GO-GO answers these questions in the form of a musical production, a play that will entertain, educate, elevate and excite you. You will experience different styles of Gospel Music with a consistent connection.

GOSPEL MUSIC A-GO-GO will take you back into the past, bring you to the present, and will give you a taste of the future. You will laugh, cry, reminisce, clap, sing and you will even witness. You will feel the closeness of the audience around you as everyone locks into the common strain. At the end, you will even participate.
