Over two decades, Pastor Paul has poured his life into building his congregation. What began as a small, hopeful gathering in a humble shophouse has grown into a prosperous megachurch with thousands of followers and a gleaming new building. This should be a moment of triumph.
But, on a day meant for celebration, Paul delivers a sermon that threatens everything he has built. His bold reconceptualisation of Hell and salvation sends shockwaves through the church, leaving even his closest allies unsure of where they stand. As arguments erupt and loyalties shift, Paul struggles to hold together the very community he once believed was unshakeable.
With richly drawn, deeply human characters, The Christians is more than a study of religious doctrine. Insightfully directed by Glen Goei, Lucas Hnath’s critically acclaimed play unfolds as a tender and searching look at how faith can both bring people together and tear them apart. Starring Shane Mardjuki and Oon Shu An, and featuring a live choir at every performance, this Singapore premiere by Wild Rice opens conversations about choice, doubt, and loyalty – speaking to anyone who has ever wrestled with what they stand for.
