As part of a national tour the award-winning Riding Lights Theatre Company will be performing The Narrow Road by Paul Birch at Manchester Cathedral at 7.30 on Sunday 14th March.
Amid the heat and beauty of ancient Palestine, a man stands on a dusty road. An extraordinary journey will take place; one which will re-trace the footsteps of Jesus into a world of miracles and madness, violence and liberation. As The Narrow Road is walked, this turbulent world is turned upside down; its inhabitants confronted by an unexpected and surprising vision.
Meeting the characters and re-living the events of the gospels, this story takes its audience back along that original road, through the place of the cross and into the challenge of a life beyond. Compellingly performed, The Narrow Road asks each of us to review the understanding and practice of our own faith in relation to that journey today.
