Looking for fresh church plays?

TRANSFORMED offers five one-act drama scripts portraying the people closest to Jesus Christ, transformed by his resurrection: Mary, his mother, transformed from giver of life to receiver of life (light drama; 2F, 2M + M/F extras) Simon Peter, from brash betrayer to the Church's solid rock (light drama/comedy; 2M, 1M/F) Mary Magdalene, from desolate disciple to eternal beloved (monologue, heavier drama, 3 optional solo songs) James, from skeptical brother to ardent worshiper (musical comedy/light drama, five ensemble ditties; 1M, 3-4M/F) John, from seeker of worldly honors to evangelist for sacrificial kingdom glory (monologue, light drama)

Running time averages roughly half an hour per play. Minimal staging requirements. Includes noncommercial performance rights for church and nonprofit groups.

TRANSFORMED is written for easy reading as well as performing. For Lent, Easter, or any time of year.
