We're pleased to bring you Seth's latest candid chat with Lindsay Mendez, George Salazar & Uzo Aduba of Broadway's GODSPELL.

A careful look through the New Testament indicates that Jesus Christ liked to eat. In addition to the notable Last Supper, he dined at the home of Martha and Mary; grilled fish at the seashore; multiplied loaves and fishes; was a guest at a friend's wedding at Cana; and ate with friends on the road to Emmaus. After healing Peter's mother-in-law, she got up and prepared a meal for Him and His coterie. It's a small wonder then that Hunter Parris, who plays Jesus in the Broadway revival of GODSPELL, chooses to be interviewed over lunch at one of his favorite Chelsea eateries.

On Thursday, March 29, GODSPELL star Hunter Parrish (Spring Awakening, 'Weeds') will participate in an online chat live from his dressing room before the evening performance of the hit revival at Circle in the Square Theatre.
