Echoes of Resilience: Theater Productions That Illuminate the Human Spirit
At the heart of Six Points Theater's compelling 2025 season lies a powerful trio of productions that explore profound themes of survival, resistance, and introspection. 'Survivors' weaves the true stories of Holocaust survivors, while 'The Messenger' sheds light on wartime memories through the narratives of interconnected lives. Adding a humorous twist to divine discourse, 'Act of God' reimagines the Ten Commandments with unparalleled wit. Each play uniquely contributes to a broader conversation on human resilience, historical memory, and the quest for a better world.

Share1. Survivors
SURVIVORS weaves together the true, inspirational stories of 10 Holocaust survivors
whose ordinary and joyful young lives were transformed by the Nazi regime. Illustrating
the risk of normalizing hate, this uplifting work impels us to take lessons from the past
and think about how we can create a safer, more inclusive community.

2. The Messenger
Four women in Pasadena, California. A Holocaust survivor and math teacher for 20 years shares her wartime experience in the classroom; one student’s mother fights against this and ignites racist incidents; a researcher discovers archival documents revealing WWII evil that her boss wants to keep hidden; and a young Asian student recounts traumatic experiences in the community. Although each speaks from different moments in time, they’re part of the same larger story.

3. Act of god
In this hip and irreverent parody, God has come to Six Points Theater to deliver a new Ten Commandments in order to clarify what the Almighty wants from humanity. With the help of two wingmen, along with questions and comments from the audience, we explore popular culture and current news. Not mincing words, God engages us to reflect on the world today. And God does this all with a sense of humor! Starring Sally Wingert as God.
