Christian Theatre Publications
CTP produces and publishes contemporary Christian plays. We currently license 2 original Broadway-style musicals:
Esther and
Pilgrim.
And we're working on a third entitled
Acts: A City Rising.
Each show conveys biblical values in an energetic and entertaining way.
Our published shows have been successfully performed by high schools, churches, home school groups and community theatres (see
Past & Upcoming Shows).
Commenting on
Pilgrim, director Wendy Weiss writes,
"It is so difficult to find really quality, redemptive material. The story was awesome, and I know the students will have these truths in their hearts for the rest of their lives. It was an awesome gospel message, the most powerful story we have told from our stage to date." (

CTP's Cathy Mays is directing a March production of
Esther at Covenant Life Church in Gaithersburg, MD.
Performances will be Friday & Saturday nights March 14 – 22. Please join us if you're in the area.
The story of an orphaned Jewish girl who becomes Queen of Persia, and discovers that her people are to be annihilated by royal decree. She is forced to trust God through frightening circumstances, with the survival of her entire race seemingly on her shoulders.
Esther is a two-act musical running 120 minutes. We license two versions: full-cast for groups of 25+ and a smaller-cast version for groups of 10–15.
It includes 15 original vocal numbers with rental of full piano and vocal scores, and optional orchestral score. An accompaniment CD is also available.
