The Easter Story
The Easter Story is an immersive theatre performance which revolves around the story of Jesus and those closest to him at the time of His death, burial, and resurrection. The piece focuses on the experiences of the disciples with Jesus and how their inner struggles with doubt, conviction, and hope shape their actions and character.
At the end of the show the audience is brought through to a reflection area where they can process what they had seen and reflect on the story of Christ and what He endured for us.
We have had the joy of performing this show two years in a row within Anchor Point with slightly different casts, even bringing in actors who had never acted in a show before.
