Play :: A radical and controversial retelling of Christ's life and death. Raw physical performances combine with searingly lyrical verse to create unforgettable theatre. The content is original and thought-provoking, with explorations of the idea of Christ as a revolutionary, planning and executing a daring plot to fulfill messianic prophecies and encourage the overthrow of the occupying Roman forces.
