Over the past six years, the Christ in the Centre production has reached out to the people of Leicester. The 2009 event starts at 10.30am in St. Peter's Square in the new Highcross Centre. The theme this year is The Cross, and this first section includes short scenes showing the lives of Christians who have followed Jesus - some with connections to Leicester like William Wilberforce and Lady Jane Grey.
These will be followed by a procession following the cross, along the pedestrianised High Street to Humberstone Gate, where the remaining events of this year's production will unfold on the main stage after about 11.15am. After several scenes of Jesus' ministry, linked to his words from the cross, the passion story will tell of Jesus' final hours from his triumphal entry into Jerusalem , the Last Supper, his arrest, trial and death on the cross, before we see his glorious resurrection and appearance to his followers.
