My Easter preparations (aside from marshmallow Peeps and
Cadbury Crème Eggs) usually entails screening of Ten Commandments or Ben-Hur, scripture
study and lots of music. For the past two years it’s also included performances
of Rob Gardner’s Lamb of God. When I tell friends I’m involved in this year’s
production I usually hear, “I saw that show years ago. It was wonderful!” Most
people have it confused with Savior of the World: a musical drama produced by
the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints at Christmastime. It has
costumes, dialog and scenery. Lamb of God is more like an oratorio presented in
concert form. (Google “Oratorio” if you’re confused. If you Google “Lamb of
God,” you get a heavy metal band.) If you’d like to experience this inspired
and inspiring music, there may still be tickets available at the door at
Cottonwood High School tonight for tonight’s 7:00 p.m. performance or the
tomorrow’s 2:00 matinee.
