Synopsis
Here's a different look at the Easter story as seen through the eyes of Barabbas, the thief who had his life exchanged for the life of Jesus of Nazareth just before the crucifixion. What happened after that? Did Barabbas continue his life of crime? This play suggests an answer. Though he was not responsible, Barabbas feels great guilt as he is shunned by the believers who resent his living existence while their Lord is dead. Curious but scared, Barabbas hides in bushes near the tomb and witnesses the resurrection, erasing his lingering doubts and causing him to join the followers, because like them, he cared.
