About the Show
Feel the Advent story in a whole new light this coming Holiday Season with The WordPlayers as we bring back In These Dark Streets, a 35 minute play with music that brings the joy, suspense, and tension of Jesus’ birth, right into your midst. Ponder with Mary in her desperate attempt to tell Joseph what’s happening, and struggle with Herod as he faces whether or not to give up the throne of his life to some “Messiah.” With hilarious moments that hit home, and musical moments that will grip your soul, In These Dark Streets is an experience you will reflect on for a lifetime.
Available for your church, school, or organization December 2025.
Booking fee: $475 for the first show, $375 for every additional show on the same day
