Easter Plays Northampton

Holy Sepulchre Church

Easter Plays – The Witness on the Easter weekend

Easter Plays Northampton – This special performance will be within the walls of The Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Northampton, founded in 1100AD. We have chosen to perform the piece in the day between Good Friday and Easter Sunday as it marks a pivotal period in Mary Magdalene’s story. I do hope you can join us on this special evening. We are also delighted to be live-streaming the performance online for those of you further away – digital/online tickets are availble.

About the show –  His story became History. Her story became Heresy.

The sacred and profane collide in a new performance by interdisciplinary artist Jo Blake, inspired by the Gospel of Mary Magdalene. Three copies of the gospel have been found – all of them with missing pages. As the only gospel written in the name of a woman, it reveals Mary Magdalene as a most formidable and courageous spiritual leader, confidante and companion of Christ. Moving through humour, bold physicality and intricate storytelling; The Witness reveals how one woman’s 2000 year old testimony comes clattering into the life of a contemporary woman, initiating a reckoning and demanding that the missing pages be written anew – Easter Plays Northampton
