For weeks my kiddos have be talking about the Easter Bunny. He's going to bring candy and he's coming in April is all that their little 2 year old minds know right now. However, a lot of families are like ours and also try to teach the reason behind the Easter celebrations - more than just the Easter Bunny. Mesa is known for it's presentation of the Easter Pageant Jesus the Christ, a live depiction of the life of Christ. And tonight, this Easter celebration begins.

Tonight is the public invited dress rehearsal at 7:00 PM. This is actually the show that I prefer to take my children to because it is less crowded and it starts an hour earlier.

English Performances

April 1st-2nd and April 7th -11th at 8:00 PM

Spanish Performances

April 3rd-4th at 8:00 PM
