Overview

What do you do when the evidence points somewhere you never expected? When reporter Simeon of the Jerusalem Daily returns from a weeks-long assignment, he finds the city in an uproar. Three men are being crucified outside the city gates - and one of them is Jesus of Nazareth. With no background on the trial and no access to the disciples, Simeon does what any good journalist would do: he starts asking questions. What he discovers will challenge everything he thought he knew. In Witnesses at the Cross, a cast of unforgettable characters brings the events of Calvary to life from the street level. A food merchant who only cares about profit. A synagogue ruler whose dead daughter is now very much alive. A woman healed after twelve years of suffering. A man who was buried for four days and walked out of his tomb. Each one has a story. Each one has been changed by the same man hanging on that cross. As the sky darkens at noon, as the earth shakes, and as whispers spread that the sealed tomb is empty, Simeon is left with one question he cannot answer as a journalist - one question that every person who hears this story must ultimately answer for themselves: Where is the body of Jesus Christ? Witnesses at the Cross is a compelling, faith-filled drama ideal for Easter productions, church theater, Passion Week services, and community performances. Blending humor, heartfelt testimony, and the weight of history's most important moment, this play speaks to skeptics and believers alike. With a cast of more than a dozen characters and minimal staging requirements, it is accessible for churches and theater groups of all sizes. Perfect for: Easter and Holy Week productions Church drama ministries Christian school and youth theater Community and regional theater Personal devotional reading The reporters of this world are still asking the same question. This play invites your audience to find the answer.
