No Name in the Street

A play about Holy Week, dramatic and powerful in its simplicity

The events leading up to the Crucifixion are seen by a mother searching for her son

When she comes to the Cross, she asks forgiveness, and we find she is not the mother of Jesus, as we had been led to believe, but the mother of Judas

The surprise is no mere theatrical trick, but the whole point of the play ...

"Are you not betrayers too?" she asks the players and the audience

The play is a tournament winner in the UK, a popular work in American church groups, and has been televised to great acclaim
