"This is a very powerful and moving play about the persecution of the early Christians. One reason for choosing it was to relate it to today's persecution that's going on, not only in some far Eastern countries, but more importantly with the steady marginalization of Christianity in 'democratic' Western Europe, including America and England. ... Our recent production was well received by an appreciative audience who were so moved at the end that they took a moment before they clapped!" -- D.H., Director, Shades Theatre Co., Hastings, East Sussex, UK
