Tattered and Worn

Both very funny and heartwarming, Tattered and Worn is a great show for all age groups. A homeless man (Zeus) meets a piano-playing angel (Gabriel) who has brought onstage a trunk full of props, costumes and stories—God’s stories.

Tattered and Worn is a quick tour through stories of the entire Bible, from Genesis to Revelation, finding first where the humor is without missing the power and surprising insight. Through laughter and tears, you’ll join the two on a journey to rediscover this wonderful thing called faith.

Starring Ted Swartz and Jeff Raught

Finding the humor and humanity in biblical stories has long been a hallmark of Ted & Company TheaterWorks. In Tattered & Worn, Ted and Jeff explore what it means to worship a God who searches for connections with us, even sending His Son to live among us. Incorporating new scenes and songs with favorite scenes from the highly acclaimed Ted & Lee shows, Fish-Eyes and Creation Chronicles, Ted and Jeff have created a show that explores what it means to lose your faith—and to find it again. 

 

Tattered & Worn is appropriate for all ages.  

Full show length: 90 minutes

"Awesome presentation.  Very well done.  Great for the average person. Don't need to be a scripture buff to appreciate it.  For the scripture buff - it was a great reminder.  I think the audience could feel the emotions of Ted portraying all characters which was totally moving.  The audience responded with enthusiasm and gratitude. It's what many people need right now to bring them back to faith.  The evening was very enjoyable and rewarding.  Many asked when we could bring them back again."  - Tina Kovalcik, Richmond, MI, Oct. 2009
