"Now there was a man, a Pharisee named Nicodemus, a member of the Sanhedrin, who came to Jesus at night..." -John 3:1
After the two year pandemic hiatus, Provision Theater Company presents NICODEMUS by Provision' Artistic Director & Playwright, Timothy Gregory.
The play will run May 6 - June 5 with performances on Fridays at 8pm, Saturdays at 4 pm and 8 pm, and Sundays at 3 pm at Trinity Christian College - Art & Communications Center located at 6601 W. College Drive, Palos Heights, IL 60463.
"NICODEMUS is based on the true story of Nicodemus found in the gospel of John. Locations, timelines, characterizations and language have been contemporized, and backstories and dialogue have been added. It is a work of the imagination and a derivation of the Biblical account. Any artistic interpretation is designed to support the truth and intention of the Scriptures," -Timothy Gregory
Jesus' harshest criticism of the Pharisees was their virtue signaling. Their need for human applause- a deep craving for the esteem of others. Everything they did was geared toward gaining the admiration and approval of men rather than the approval of God and the magnification of His glory. The world today is full of "religious" people like this. This play points out the deep-setting sin of their movement.
"Now there was a man, a Pharisee named Nicodemus, a member of the Sanhedrin, who came to Jesus at night..." -John 3:1
