Saltmine Theatre Company’s Three Witnesses
Three Witnesses from Saltmine Trust on Vimeo.
Production History:
Three Witnesses was created in partnership with UCCF to tour to university audiences, as part of the Uncover programme. Christian Unions booked this show as an outreach event. From January-March 2013, the show was performed in 25 locations on a 7-week tour, to approximately 4000 students. During the tour, the Saltmine team heard of (and saw) people giving their lives to Christ following the show, and 100s of students took away copies of Luke’s Gospel and requested the Uncover Bible Study to find out more. Feedback was overwhelmingly positive- one student simply said:
“The play made me realise just how radical Jesus is and you can’t really feel neutral about him”

In a broken country, a desperate nation waits impatiently for a saviour.
When at last a man appears, the revolution he offers is one of hearts and minds. His concern is for the poor, the broken and the lost. Appalled by his words and afraid of his deeds, the powers of the land decree - Jesus must die.
In this remarkable modern retelling of the gospel of Luke, a driven writer seeks to piece together the true story of Jesus and his quest to save the lost. Through news and documentary footage and encounters with key witnesses he gains a unique insight into Jesus’ life, death and what happened next.
