Tell The Story is a musical production that highlights the last days of the life of Jesus in a contemporary setting. We are introduced to several characters that came into contact with Jesus on His journey and we get to hear them relive those impactful experiences through song and dance. Set inside a modern day church on Good Friday, we are taken on an emotional theatrical ride as we hear the teachings of Jesus' through contemporary language and come to grips with His ultimate sacrifice.
