Holy Week

A family is preparing to go to church. Each of the three characters is answering questions from a little girl, unseen and unheard by the audience. The mother is asked about what is meant by "Holy Week" and "Palm Sunday." She doesn't want to be bothered with "complex spiritual questions" for which she obviously doesn't have good answers even though she claims to believe. Aunt Eunice confusedly wraps together Easter, Christmas, the Three Bears, and the Tooth Fairy! Then cynical Uncle Walter confesses the whole resurrection thing is probably made up. The little girl-and the audience-are left with more questions than answers about the meaning of Holy Week.Willow Creek Association is the author of 'Holy Week', published 1996 under ISBN 9780310675716 and ISBN 0310675715.
