Brad Sherrill: PROPHETS Premiere, TV Interview, March 22nd, 2010

Atlanta-based actor Brad Sherrill is interviewed by NBC Atlanta affiliate about his upcoming premiere of PROPHETS, which is now presented nationwide in professional theaters and churches. A solo live performance adapted from Isaiah, Jeremiah and other biblical texts, PROPHETS brings tension to the here and now; a tension between God's judgment and God's promise. World-renowned biblical scholar and author Walter Brueggemann calls PROPHETS "evocative and compelling....an important performance that will make a difference to many people who care about the Biblical tradition and who care about the moral, social crisis in which we find ourselves." PROPHETS examines our relationship with the creator by considering what lies in the recesses of the human heart. The prophets seek a more ethical consideration of neighbor... those whom Christ calls "the least of these." Brad Sherrill has toured his live off-Broadway performance of The Gospel of John since 2001 to sold-out houses and critical acclaim. The New York Times has called Sherrill "a poised performer." The Atlanta Journal adds: "Sherrill entertains and cajoles, moves and mesmerizes."
