The Big Picture - Calgary

Billed as "The Bible in Two Hours", The Big Picture is a stirring, epic play that explores the narrative of the Christian holy book in one theatrical event.

"The Big Picture's whirlwind trip from Genesis through Revelation presents the Word in today's lingo and this ain't no Sunday school."
Calgary Herald

The Big Picture by Toronto playwright Dennis Hassell, is a stirring, epic theatrical encounter with God's relationship to humankind as it is told in the tales of the Christian Bible. The compelling, human side of these foundational stories of western culture comes to life as an ensemble cast of five multi-talented performers enacts them with expert versatility - Adam and Eve, Abraham and Isaac, Joseph and his brothers, David and Bathsheba, right through the gospel of Jesus Christ and beyond.
