Isaac is represented as Christlike, the willing sacrifice, while Abraham experiences tremendous grief over having to sacrifice his beloved son, yet neither question nor doubt God's will, faithfully obeying His command. In this play, we get to know the four workmen assigned the task of crucifying the King of the Jews, as they labor to nail Christ's body to the cross and lift it into a standing position. The play reveals much about our inherently sinful nature as well as the all-redeeming sacrifice of Christ. Directed by Dr. Carolyn Scott, Associate Professor of English Literature in the Josephinum College of Liberal Arts, the plays will feature twelve Josephinum seminarians. The Josephinum Dramatic Organization sponsors the performance.
