Three communities of players put on the annual Easter story of Christ while navigating the intersection of religion, art, and politics. This boldly inventive play spans three eras: Queen Elizabeth's England, Hitler's Germany, and Reagan's America. Ruhl's exploration of devotion (or/and sacrifice?) takes us on a humorous yet unsettling journey filled with lust, whimsy, and a lot of fish.
