The Players Repertoire 2008–09

“The Big Maybe.” Gabe and Amanda are trying to figure our the next step in their relationship. Caught between cultural pressures and the experiences and expectations of their friends, Gabe and Amanda must face “the big maybe” and deal with important emotional and spiritual questions surrounding sex and consequences. Through their struggle, they see the need for purity as well the ways in which God’s grace can help us move beyond our mistakes.

“The Princess and the Ogre.” A long time ago, in a far away kingdom, there once lived a princess and an ogre. The ogre terrorized the countryside, the princess lived safe within the palace walls. But when the princess leaves the palace to see if her father’s grace is for everyone, we’re taken on a musical journey that examines our calling as Christians to love our enemies and the truth that no one has fallen too far to be saved by the grace of God.
