Bio / Background
The Word, A Gospel Opera is a full-length rock musical based on the four Gospels, Old Testament, and Psalms. Composed by Bill Monaghan in 1995, The Word has been presented onstage in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia, and in the Delaware Valley over 55 times in the last ten years and is now a full-length film released by Monaghan Music, LLC. The music itself is comprised of 23 original songs in a variety of energetic styles, including a Reggae Baptism, the Beatitudes in sign language, a Hoe-down of final judgment, and the African drum-based Resurrection, as well as Motown, gospel doo wop, blues and folk rock. The Word, both on stage and on film, features a cast of teens and adults who portray Jesus’ teachings, suffering, death and resurrection with unbounded joy and emotion.
Bill Monaghan was born in Philadelphia in 1970, at age 11 his grandparents gave him the old piano that was in their basement and it was on this that he would learn Billy Joel songs by ear.
