‘33 A.D.’ continues through April 20 at Ragtown Gospel Theater in Post POST—“33 A.D.,’a production of Ragtown GospelTheater, pieces together the stories of four quixotic characters in the Bible, and highlights their roles in the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus. Pontius Pilate, who hesitantly approved the execution of Jesus; Barabbas, the murderer Jesus replaced on the cross; the Centurion who pierced his side, spilling the blood of Christ; and Joseph of Arimathea, who supplied the tomb for Jesus were all caught up in events beyond their control.

Directed by Glenn Polk, the production also features uplifting music with Chip Polk at the piano and singing by Jeff Bailey and Savannah Gwinn.

Shows are Saturdays at 3 p.m. through April 20. For more information, call 1-877-724-8696.
