Backyard Bard does Baldhead

just got back from seeing the backyard bard's production of Elisha.
basically it's just really good bible telling, or bible storying - listening to real people reading out God's word in an engrossing fashion. they came up to Sydney last year also, to do Elijah; they've also done Ruth, and one of the members has been in the states doing Elijah on his own. see him here below (the top clip is just a promo, this is the sort of stuff they actually do:

on a personal note, it's pretty cool to see where they're at now - i went to uni with some of these guys around the turn of the millenium; working out how to use both gifts in theatre, or artistic gifts in general, and love for Jesus to serve the gospel is a real challenge - it's great to see the sort of things they're up to. they started with lots of non-actors doing the whole of Mark's gospel, now they've got a whole swathe of Bible stories up their sleeve!
