 Curtis Easter Pageant
Held on Palm Sunday, April 9 @ 3:00 PM at the Curtis High School Gymnasium
A Curtis community member quotes, "The pageant is the Curtis area's gift to Nebraska because, without Easter, Christmas would be just another day." The first community Easter Pageant was held April 4, 1958. It has evolved to the "Living Pictures" format with narration to establish the mood and background of each scene and its accompanying community choir. The pageant includes 17 scenes of familiar events, famous paintings, and statuary. This touching 3-dimensional living picture pageant presentation includes authentic-type costumes, dramatic lighting, motionless poises by a 65-member cast (including children) and a 50-member choir.
