'Godspell' fails to spellbind

'Godspell," a favorite of community theaters and church groups since the beginning of time -- more accurately, since 1971 Off-Broadway -- has not been on Broadway in 34 years. How one greets this revival clearly depends on one's affection for Stephen Schwartz's first musical, an earnest, up-with-people, soft-pop pastiche based on "The Gospel According to St. Matthew."
