Featuring performances from some of Auckland and New Zealand’s finest performers, rocking live band, stunning set and technical elements, Godspell is set to dazzle and amaze!
The story of Godspell follows Jesus and his disciples, and his teachings mainly based around the Gospel of Matthew, told through parable, song, and dance. Most will know Godspell for some of the chart-smashing songs, such as “All for the Best”, “Bless the Lord” and “Day by Day”.

A warranty is extra to the protections in the Consumer Guarantees Act (CGA) and can’t override or replace these. This means a retailer can't just say you're out of luck because the warranty period has ended.
The CGA says that products have to be of an acceptable quality which means they must be fit for purpose (or do what they're made to do), last for a reasonable amount of time, be safe, and be free from any minor defects. What is “acceptable quality” is based on what you could reasonably expect taking into account things like the nature of the goods, what you paid for them, and any particular statements made about the goods.
If you have a problem with something you’ve bought and the warranty period has ended, you might still be entitled to have it repaired or replaced. Check out our information on your rights as a consumer or phone CAB on 0800 367 222.
