Easter pageants
Spring religious shows
Easter pageants are dramatic presentations depicting events from the Christian narrative of Jesus's death and resurrection, typically performed during Holy Week or Easter Sunday.
Churches and communities stage these productions with varying degrees of elaboration—from simple Sunday school performances to large-scale outdoor spectacles with professional actors and live animals.
The church has been putting on its Easter pageant for forty years.
