The Gospel of John
by Brad Sherrill
It took nearly five months for Georgia Shakespeare Associate Artisit Brad Sherrill to memorize all 20,000 words of The Gospel of John. He had plans to perform it just once at his home church in Atlanta, but has since presented John’s gospel over 500 times in professional theaters and churches across the U.S., Canada, the U.K. and Ireland. Brad is bringing his celebrated touring performance back to Georgia Shakespeare for a special one-week engagement.
With perhaps a dozen very simple props used in a variety of ways, Sherrill transforms the gospel into a captivating drama, presenting the entire story of the life, ministry, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
