A diverse group of ordinary people are drawn together by a charismatic teacher figure who retells the parables and teachings of the Gospel of Matthew through clowning, improvisation, and communal celebration.

Stephen Schwartz's joyful, genre-blending musical was one of the first to bring the energy of the counterculture to Biblical storytelling, featuring the beloved anthem 'Day by Day.'
