Christian theatre has rich roots, from ancient Hebrew dramas to
medieval plays, but where does it fit in today's media-saturated
society?
"Performing the Sacred "is a fascinating dialogue between a
theologian and theatre artist, offering the first full-scale
exploration of theatre and theology. The authors illuminate the
importance of live performance in a virtual world, of preserving
the ancient art form of storytelling by becoming the story.
Theologically, theatre reflects Christianity's central
doctrines--incarnation, community, and presence--enhancing the
human creative experience and simultaneously engaging viewers on
multiple levels.
This Engaging Culture series title will be a key volume for those
interested in theatre as well as drama practitioners, worship
leaders, and culture makers.
