    as John/Judas

    Dr. Jay has had small roles in several productions. He received rave reviews as a lead in Neil Simon’s 'Rumors!' playing a nervous, angry, controlling lawyer, but some said he was “type cast.” In his next life Jay wants to come back as a Broadway singer and dancer, but when he says this, friends urge him to not give up his day job! He is currently the Senior Pastor of First Church. Jay is delighted to be on stage with his daughter Jessica (Peggy).

    as Sonia

    Tassie’s first memory of Director (and husband) Tim Plankey is watching him sing for a school assembly when they were both in 7th grade. Since then she has been in many shows with Tim (and later also with their children) but Godspell has been her favorite. “This is a fun role with a great cast and it is even better because we can participate as a family.” When Tassie is not flirting and singing she is working in the children’s department at Storrs Library or planning her next trip to Disney.

  • Liz Woolsey head shot
