'The Thorn' Plays to One Million
The acclaimed Easter stage show, "The Thorn,"
is extending its performance with a limited 2013 national tour.
Nearly 1 million people have to date seen the unique live production, described by reviewers as "A Cirque du Soleil performance, meets The Passion of the Christ, meets a Broadway musical."
"The Thorn" is a live, dramatic portrayal of the passion of the Christ, featuring live music, dance, special affects and aerial gymnastics. With unexpected features such as martial arts, live Taiko drums, overhead acrobatics, pyrotechnics and other special effects rivaling Hollywood, "The Thorn" is not a traditional church play production.
Paul Asay from the Gazette exclaims, "The Thorn is a local dramatic and musical extravaganza." Eric Gorski from the Denver Post remarks: "The Thorn rivals a Broadway production in scope and ambition."
Beginning in Colorado Springs, Colorado as a small regional play 16 years ago, "The Thorn" has grown to become the largest perennial, volunteer-based touring Easter production in the United States. Over the past 16 seasons, nearly one million people have witnessed this dramatic live event and more than 60,000 people are expected to see the 2013 version.
"The Thorn" this Easter season will make a multi-market tour to include Charleston, SC, Nashville, TN, Colorado Springs, CO, Denver, CO and Seattle, WA.

Glenn Beck Shares Easter Story on National Radio
Glenn Beck shared an essay in the first hour of his nationally syndicated talk radio program. Glenn Beck played his previously recorded narration of the Story of Easter set to Pink Floyd music. I found it remarkable that a non-Christian radio show would be this blatant with the story of salvation.
