From 1998 to 2001 we presented a programme of readings and reflections for Good Friday in a format similar to a radio play, but with music and lighting in addition to the words. These productions were toured to Camden Road Baptist Church during Holy Week, as well as being performed at our own home base in Finchley on Good Friday.
For 2002 we produced a more complex production, a modern language version of a mystery play, which we presented at four church venues during Holy Week.
Our 2003 & 2004 productions returned to programmes of readings, reflections and music.
Short modern 'mystery plays', "An Inn Keeper's Tale", "The Soldiers Tale", "The Gardener's Tale" & "Peter's Tale" were performed at five North London churches during Holy Week 2005 - 2008.
Scripts
The scripts for "The Passion", "An Inn Keeper's Tale", "The Soldiers Tale" & "The Gardener's Tale" were written by Mike Sparks for the Guild Players. Copies are available from the publishers, Lazy Bee Scripts.
