Readers should be visible at the foot of the stage. Readers are holding candles so music stands may be needed. Play begins in complete darkness.
Audience is given candles as they enter.
Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. God saw that the light was good. Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what he has done has been done through God. Players walk around groping along walls, as if lost.
