Comments from the shows in Melbourne
"Gripping.
Loved the accents and different characteristics of the people in the story.
The ending was so exciting."
"This play has really caused me to think about how God (or Yahweh) worked.
I'll surely read more about it in the Bible."

helping you to understand it better."

Once again, The Backyard Bard has excelled itself."

It was a brilliant way to wake us all up to the living Word of God...
as Elijah did himself."

Ritz"Great performance guys!! Excellent and I am glad I came to see it.
It evoked many childhood memories of how my Grandad
used to tell me these Bible Stories.
Very powerful. Thanks for reminding us of God's Greatness and Grace!!"
"I was on the edge of my seat.
You made Elijah and every character come alive.
It made me realise how much we miss
when we read in a monotone such dramatic dialogue."
