It's about them, and you
A new play, Three Women and You, will take the audience right into their own hearts.
Theatre lovers are in for a treat… tonight and tomorrow only, the National Theatre of Namibia brings you 'Three Women and You', directed by David Ndjavera and Dierdra Weston. The play is based on a book by Brenda Daniel and was adapted by Obed Emvula, who co-produces along with Brenda Daniels.
The three women are played by Lizl Jankowski as Sam/Samaritan woman, Carol Semedo as Elizabeth and Abigail Goliath who plays Abigil.
They are supported by a stellar cast.
The show opens tonight at 20:00 and tomorrow, theatre lovers can see it at 19:00.
You are about to journey into the lives of three women whose situation and circumstances were significant enough that they would be recorded in the canon scriptures. The Bible tells us that… “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that we may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work,” II Timothy 3:16-17. There are many examples of great women in the Bible, but I believe these three you are about to encounter will be used as a mirror, to help you gain insight and understanding during the unpleasant episodes in your own life. Three Women and You has a universal revelation that speaks to the life of every woman's past, present or future. You will discover through the lives of the three women that regardless of why we face hard places, why things happened the way they did last time, or why the thing you desire has yet to come to pass… we have a God who is able to help us and restore us. If you will dare to put your trust in Him, He will never disappoint you.
The three women whose lives we will explore are Abigail, Elizabeth and the Samaritan woman. Although the journey into each individual life will be unique with very different circumstances, you will notice commonalities within the experiences of these women. You will see that the experiences of the three women parallel the experiences of women today. As you move through their stories keep in mind that these are women who are thousands of years removed from today's contemporary woman; yet women today will find they can identify with the challenges faced by the three women during given seasons of their own lives. Many times the devil will try to convince you that what you are going through is isolated or uncommon. More likely than not, at least five other women or your row at church are in the same place, fighting the same battle, only in different scenarios! The Bible teaches us there is nothing new under the sun, but our enemy is clever enough to manipulate circumstances to make them appear outstanding or unusual. In reality, the same tactics he used to gain entrance into the lives of women living thousands of years ago are the same one he employs to gain entrance into our lives today.
For some, this story will bring revelation and insight to help you where you are in your process right now. For others, you will find clarity and understanding for what you have already come through so that you can be released from your past. Either way, you are in for a great blessing.
In an effort to capture the lives of these three women from a more contemporary perspective, their stories are presented in the first person. This simply means that the interpretation of the Biblical account is dramatised through the imagination of their humanness.
Three unique women, Elizabeth, the Samaritan woman, and Abigail… leading very different lives in very different times, and 'you', who will find yourself, or your story, within theirs.
