Tells the story of Jesus of Nazareth through a series of short tableaux, emphasizing the humanity and emotions of each character and reminding us that all of the individuals in the tableaux are facing deeply human struggles. Though Jesus resigns himself to God’s will in being crucified, He is overwhelmed in the face of His Father’s seeming abandonment. Mary, when tested with the death of her son on the cross, suffers in agony before coming to acceptance. At the foot of the cross is a grief-stricken sinner, who cries out in desperation that she cannot help the man who once saved her from a life of sin. Even Pilate, before he hands Jesus over to the priests to be crucified, struggles between uncertainty and belief. “Oh My Son” is the story of a selfless and world-changing act of love. 7:30 p.m. Walt Disney Concert Hall, 111 South Grand Avenue, Los Angeles 90012. Tickets are now on sale for $15, 25, 35, 75, 100 and group rates, from lasierra.edu/music or the Walt Disney Concert Hall box office, 1-800-628-1403.
