The Women's Spiritual Repertory Company

Women from Living History organizations, and docents from historical properties and museums are forming a repertory company whose members portray various women of the Bible.

The Women's Spiritual Repertory Company is an organization of individual and groups of women dedicated to learning and teaching others about the women of the Bible, their lives and stories.

Members study one or more women of the Bible, then 'become' the character(s) they have studied. They dress in costumes accurate for the time and region, and perform character re-enactments for civic and church groups, retirement centers, etc. Members critique each other's re-enactment presentations and make helpful suggestions for improvement.
