One Rehearsal Easter Morning - Free Easter Play Script (PDF Download)
One Rehearsal Easter Morning is a reverent, reader’s-theater Easter play designed for churches that need a meaningful presentation with very little preparation time.
The script retells the morning of Jesus’ resurrection through the voices of Mary Magdalene, Peter, John, and an angel, with a narrator guiding the story through brief transitions. All parts may be read directly from the page, making this play especially well suited for worship services, sunrise services, or reflective Easter gatherings.
