At the Cross
A dramatic program of readings and music focused on the events of one very important Friday at Golgotha
In 1992 I began a program of meditation on the closing scenes of the life of Jesus. As a writer, I often find new inspiration and insights as I put thoughts on paper. Somehow I got started on writing accounts of what it was like to be at the cross, from the perspectives of various people whom we know were there. The result has been a tremendous inspiration to me, and to many others who have had the chance to view the program as presented by amateur acting groups in churches.
If you would like to consider producing the drama, which includes solo and choir musical selections, in your community, a complete program plan is available. Write to me on church or drama group letterhead at: Ken Wade, PO Box 951, Nampa, ID 83653 for information. Include an e-mail address in your correspondence to facilitate communication. Questions or preliminary inquiries can be e-mailed to me at spiritquest@sbcglobal.net
Additional materials available by request, but not online, include the music list, including suggested background music, instructions on setting up the stage, and a complete minute-by-minute to-do list for producing the drama.
