The Lost Gospel of Pontius Pilate concerns itself with the dilemma and fateful decision of a Roman governor. Playwright Michael Punter explains: "For a man at the heart of one of history's most important events, we know very little about Pontius Pilate. The sources differ: was he a heartless monster or a humanist baffled by the overwhelming historical forces swirling around him? In this play - part-memoir and part-thriller, he is a man born into violence, surviving Rome's worst defeat in Germany, then taking that experience to his next appointment: Judea. It seems that he must pass on his pain, until his encounter with a strange carpenter from Galilee who shows him another way…” Written by Michael Punter. Starring Maxwell Caulfield.
