Born for This - the story of the life and death of Jesus Christ is to be performed by the local communities of Feltham, Bedfont, Hanworth and Hounslow. It is an emotional story about the life of the Son of God which is to be performed throughout the month of March in preparation for Easter. With the support of the Ten Ten Theatre Company, people of all ages and talents will participate in the production. Over thirty members of different churches will perfom roles such as musicians, actors and stage crew in the group; The Feltham Passion.
'Born for This' was created by CJM Music. The music was written by Joanne Boyce and Mike Stanley, who were inspired by the works of Jude Martin, writer of Stations of the Cross. It is a musical intepretation of the life of Jesus. 'Born for This' is a popular piece of work in the UK and has been performed in many cathedrals and churches in recent years.
The ensemble will perform at St. Lawrence Church, Feltham on Friday 15th March at 7.30pm, and St. Dunstan Church, Feltham on Sunday 17th March at 3.00pm. Feltham Young Offenders Institution will also host the production on Sunday 24th March at 3.00pm, where the ensemble will perform 'Born for This' to the inmates. In Hounslow, the church of St. Michael & St. Martin will stage the play on Monday 25th Match at 7.30pm.
Joe Early, is the director of the The Feltham Passion, who meet once or twice a week to rehearse. He wants the play to give people a 'deeper understanding of God' and for it to be 'meaningful' to those who watch it. He says everyone involved in the performance 'deserves a pat on the back for all their hard work and enthusiasm'. He is looking forward with confidence to the performances in the up and coming weeks.
