A Day of Blood and Heartbreak

Run-time: 60
Cast-number: 8
Bible reference: Matthew, Mark, Luke, John
A Reader’s drama in the Tenebrae form, (pronounced ten-na-bray), recapturing the mood of the original Good Friday. The fact is that the disciples and others attending would be dealing “in the moment” and not even aware that “Easter Sunday was coming” therefore the entire happening would be solemn and painful and can only be portrayed by a solemn and low key service, essentially without joy or hope. The music, (if any), would be mournful and slow, likely…

Cast-number: 20

And Now Hes Gone

Run-time: 10

Bible reference: Matthew
Jesus is dead, those nearest to him mourning, each in their own way. Set in the time when all likely somewhat doubting, that between the crucifixion and resurrection, some of the principal characters of Easter reflect on what the life and death of Jesus means to them.

And We Wait

A subject often avoided by new, even experienced Christians.…
