SCRIPT PREVIEW
Synopsis
Characters walk from the pages of Scripture into your sanctuary to express how their lives overlapped and intertwined with Jesus in the wake of his impending crucifixion. Their feelings range from skepticism to grief, but all were deeply affected by the man Jesus and his ministry. Each character extinguishes one candle every week to symbolize a growing darkness of heart as Christ’s death on the cross nears. Includes monologue vignettes for all six Sundays of Lent plus Good Friday and Easter for maximum continuity. Biblical characters included are: 1. Simon of Cyrene, 2. A Lamenting Woman, 3. The Sneering Ruler, 4. Jesus’ Mother, 5. John, 6. Barabbas, 7. Joseph of Arimathea and 8. Mary Magdalene. Easter morning brings joy and light as the Christ candle is relit!
