Sight and Sound Production of Samson

Five of us Wards went to Pennsylvania to see the new production of Samson.  The photos here are pre-production so they are not copyrighted.  It gives you an idea of the sets and costumes.

The play gave a different perspective on the Samson story, one that showed God's grace in  Samson's life though he made many bad choices, even though his parents tried to bring him up the way God wanted them to.    Samson was responsible for the choices he made, especially about the women he loved.  In the end he was allowed to give God glory by dying with the Philistines and killing more then than he had in his life.   An example of God's abundant grace to us sinners.
In the lobby
Much of the scenery was of a rocky wilderness.  Amazing how these huge pieces were moved about. 
This guy was a magician 
A video effect on the background sky showed "birds" flying that formed the word Samson
Here the magician rides a live camel
These three guys were the grunting comic relief
