THE GNOSTIC CYCLE - STAGE PLAY

THE GNOSTIC CYCLE - STAGE PLAY
By R. A. Modro

GENRE: Experimental, Drama
LOGLINE:

What if the truth of Yeshua was never lost, but buried beneath doctrine, denial, and fear? 

The Gnostic Cycle: A Testament of Souls is a theatrical event that resurrects the
silenced voices of the early faith: Judas, Magdalene, Peter, Thomas, Philip, Mary the
Mother, and at the end of all things, John of Patmos, and The Final Witness. 

Told in fierce, lyrical monologues and sacred confrontations, these plays invite audiences
into a gospel not written… but lived. 

SYNOPSIS:

The Gnostic Cycle is a bold reimagining of Christian origin stories, dramatized through eight

interconnected one-act plays. Each centers on a key figure whose gospel was suppressed

or distorted, and each wrestles with the mystery of who Yeshua truly was, and what he

actually taught.

Drawing inspiration from early Christian and Gnostic writings, the Gospel of Judas, Gospel

of Mary Magdalene, Gospel of Thomas, Gospel of Philip, The Dialogue of the Savior, and the

canonical Book of Revelation, whose apocalyptic visions are fiercely reimagined in I, John:

The Prophet of Patmos. These plays challenge orthodoxy with intimate, explosive

monologues and metaphysical confrontations. They reclaim the radical, subversive truths

of these texts in the historical context of their time, not the whitewashed, empire

sanctioned stories we've been fed. The result is not a retelling--but a reckoning.

Each voice offers its own gospel:

A gospel of doubt. A gospel of Union. A gospel of surrender. A gospel of love. A gospel of

collapse, and ultimately, a gospel of revelation.

Through poetic monologue, metaphysical reflection, and searing emotional truth, The

Gnostic Cycle dismantles centuries of orthodoxy to reveal the divine spark at the center of

human experience.
