‘The Thorn’ Onstage at the Benedum (Tues., 4/8/25)

THE THORN (passion play). Touring company at Benedum Center. April 8 – 9.

Witness the passion of Christ told through a dazzling multi-media stage show that includes flaming swords, powerful dance, electrifying music and aerial acrobatics. Some have described this traveling production as “Christ meets Cirque” (as in Cirque du Soleil.) The Thorn has no affiliation with the famous Montreal entertainment company, nor is it promoted in association with any one Christian denomination. Rather, the show was apparently created by a pair of youth ministers some 25 years ago. Produced, staged, acted, performed and arranged by an independent touring company, also known as The Thorn, this modern passion play has entertained audiences estimated at more than one million. Benedum Center, 237 7th St., Cultural District. (C.P.O.)
