What happens when faith is tested, beliefs are challenged, and a congregation is forced to choose?
In Lucas Hnath’s gripping drama The Christians, a megachurch pastor delivers a shocking sermon that shakes his community to its core. As tensions rise and loyalties are questioned, this powerful play delves into the complexities of belief, doubt, and the cost of conviction.
A story that resonates with both conservative and progressive Christians, The Christians explores the deep divides in faith and the search for common ground in a world that often feels irreparably split. Who says red and blue can’t come together?
🗣️ Join the conversation! Each performance will be followed by a live talkback, where audience members can engage in meaningful dialogue about the play’s themes.
🎭 Don’t miss the thought-provoking season finale that will have everyone talking!
