MARY AT THE FOOT OF THE CROSS
When we think of Jesus' mother, it's often in the glowing Nativity scene:
a radiant young woman holding a swaddled baby. This script shows us quite another Mary: a mother torn by agony as she watches her son die a horrible, demeaning death. We get a chance to see both Jesus and Mary as "people" rather than "biblical figures."

A MOTHER'S SON
As these three intertwined monologues unfold, we realize we are watching three women named Mary who have each lost a son. One is having trouble accepting that her young son is dying. One is mourning the loss of her unborn son, who died when she was 29 weeks pregnant. The third is the mother of Jesus, watching her beloved son die. Through their stories, we feel the pain of losing a child and gain a glimpse of the love the Father has for us that he would sacrifice his only Son to save us.
