EASTER SPECTACULAR
EASTER SPECIAL THEATRE
Written and directed by Chelsi Nikkerud; and performed by the Planetshakers Theatre Co., Easter Spectacular is a 4-night, 5-show free theatre special celebrating Easter and God. With over 85 cast and crew members, 7 months of preparation, and at least 2,000 audiences, this production has brought changes to everyone’s perception of Easter celebrations.
This production, led by Penelope Bartlau and performed by Monash students, is inspired by the running economic problems and how we perceive items as ‘valuable’ - through market prices, sentiments, time, or efforts.
