TBC
Jesus Christ
The crucified and risen Lord, whose sacrifice and victory over death offer eternal life. Having conquered the grave, Jesus’ journey through The Resurrection is the heart of redemption—powerful, triumphant, and poignant in equal measure.
TBC
Mary Magdalene
A devoted follower and first witness to the risen Christ, Mary Magdalene is at the very heart of the story of The Resurrection. Having stood faithful at the cross and discovered the empty tomb, Mary’s arc here is profoundly moving, heartfelt, and transformative.
TBC
Judas Iscariot
The betrayer and pivotal antagonist whose betrayal seals Jesus’ crucifixion. Now trapped in limbo after his suicide, Judas’s story is complex and far from over.
TBC
Mary, Mother of Jesus
Jesus’ mother, who watched her only son suffer and die on the cross. After the unimaginable pain of losing him, she faces the even harder truth of his resurrection: how does it feel to lose a child twice? Mary’s quiet strength and deep love make her one of the most pivotal figures in the story.
TBC
Pontius Pilate
The Roman governor who sentenced Jesus to death despite finding no guilt in him. Pilate gave in to the crowd’s demands and religious pressure to keep order, but the decision haunts him. Wracked with guilt, we find the once-stoic prefect a broken man with an uncertain future.

Caiaphas
The high priest behind Jesus’ condemnation. With the body missing, Caiaphas blames the disciples and starts a pursuit from Jerusalem to Galilee to quash the resurrection claims. More cautious than Annas, he plots to contain the rumours of a resurrected Jesus.
TBC
Annas
The influential ex-high priest who first interrogated Jesus about his disciples and teaching. Annas is hotheaded and quick to anger, often more impulsive than Caiaphas. After the tomb is found empty, he spreads the claim that the disciples stole the body and pushes for an aggressive pursuit to silence the growing resurrection movement.
