Jesus Centre Stage cover

Jesus is alive and well in theatre (even if showbiz upsets believers). Theatre-lovers will enjoy exploring our rich English tradition of dramatic portrayals of Jesus. Here is a study that ranges widely, from medieval Mystery Plays to Berkoff and from stage to broadcast media. Students (of drama and/or missiology) will find here a treasure-trove of references, critiques and listings. There are plenty of practical applications for: 1. actors cast in the part of Jesus 2. playwrights 3. producers and directors 4. churches planning to use drama, either as amateurs or with invited professionals.
