Following up the popular Sorrento summer 2019 course The Gospel According to Musical Theatre, Sorrento presents a new—and different– opportunity to explore the structure and history of musical theatre, reflecting theologically on how gospel themes are conveyed, with particular attention to issues of race, representation, and redemption.

Join with others in hearing presentations and having discussions about some of your favourite musicals, discover some new shows—and be surprised by how often issues of race and representation find their place in this perennially popular art form.
