Director's Pack - One Rehearsal Easter Morning – Easter Play (Printable PDF)
One Rehearsal Easter Morning is a reverent, reader’s-theater Easter play written specifically for churches that need a meaningful presentation with minimal preparation time. Designed to be rehearsed once—or simply read through—this play allows participants to focus on the message of Easter rather than memorization or staging.
Told through the voices of Mary Magdalene, Peter, John, and an angel, the script follows the discovery of the empty tomb and the dawning realization that Jesus is alive. A narrator connects each moment with gentle transitions, making this play especially well suited for Easter Sunday worship, sunrise services, or reflective church gatherings.
This Director’s Pack provides everything needed to print, distribute, and present the play with clarity and confidence.
