What’s a mystery play?
Come find out at St. Paul’s Cathedral at 7:00 p.m. on Sunday, March 15.
Winged Productions presents /Three in the Wilderness/ – a new mystery play by Paul Dedell and Finn Campman. Using original puppets, song, and dance, /Three in the Wilderness/ offers a twist on the Gospel stories of Jesus’ temptation by Satan.
Although “Three in the Wilderness” stems from a story in the Bible and will be performed at St. Paul’s Episcopal Cathedral during the Lenten season, Paul Dedell says it is hardly limited to a Christian audience.
“Any human can come,” he says, laughing. “Versions of the story of a divine figure going through a series of temptations appear in Buddhist, Hindu, Islamic, and many other traditions. We certainly deal with the sacred, but ultimately our mystery play is a celebration of humanity.”
Three in the Wilderness is suitable for both children and adults.
Tickets, available at the door, are $10 for adults, $8 for children 12 and under. More info at http://www.stpaulscathedralvt.org/article/three-wilderness
