OCEAN CITY – St. Peter’s Methodist Church, in conjunction with Ocean City Tabernacle, will present a live dramatization of Leonardo da Vinci’s painting, “The Last Supper” on March 28, and March 29, at 7 p.m. The drama will be held at the Ocean City Tabernacle, 550 Wesley Ave. Admission is free (offering received).
With 13 living characters, the cast remains “frozen” in their positions, duplicating the famous painting. One by one, each disciple breaks his “freeze” and speaks his mind in light of the words he has just heard Jesus speak… “One of you will betray me,” at which point each man responded, “Lord, is it I?” The tension continues to build throughout the drama to Judas’ betrayal of Jesus.
The part of Jesus this year is played by Seth Bazacas, a 2005 graduate of Ocean City High School (where he played the role of Tony in West Side Story). Bazacas has returned to Ocean City to become the artistic director for the Tabernacle’s newly acquired Moorlyn Family Theatre. Eric Hitchner, Youth Minister at the Tabernacle and at Coastal Christian Church, reprieves his role as Judas. Carolyn Lothian, pianist at the Tabernacle and at St. Peter’s United Methodist Church is the director.
The public is invited to experience an evening of drama, music, and worship in the intimacy of the Upper Room as Jesus shares his last meal with His disciples, followed by a unique communion service.
Villas – Yep, here come those mask mandates again starting in, of course, a blue state. If there isn't a virus yet for the mask, they will find one before November 5th.
