Description

Friday Goodman opens a restaurant during Easter, but on the day of the Grand Opening, the only visitor to arrive isn't on the guest list. Friday Goodman has just retired from a steel factory, with no big plans for retirement, until he decides to open a restaurant. And there's a prime piece of real estate that comes at a price that is too good to be true. There's only one catch; there's a cross that hangs on the wall but it can't be taken down; it's all a part of the purchase. Using some of his retirement, and some help from a trust fund he shares with his sister Betty Jean, Friday decides to buy it, convincing his wife Joy, a devout church woman, that it's the best moves for their lives. But Friday isn't very religious, so it doesn't bother him to have a grand opening for Easter; for him the cross is the perfect marketing tool. When Friday decides to go through with his plans, against his wife's wishes, the troubles start. GOOD FRIDAY is a unique stage presentation that delivers a powerful message of redemption and grace, and reminds us that in the Kingdom of God, who can always use us--in spite of ourselves--to accomplish a greater purpose.
