The Thorn tells the epic story of God's love for the world and the spiritual battle for all humanity. The story of Christ is presented in an immersive show with music, drama, aerial acts, movement arts, modern dance, and special effects. Witnessed live by more than 1 million people over 25 years, The Thorn will engage audiences in the definitive story of love, sacrifice and redemption like never before.
Show Advisory: A note for our guests seated in the first three rows of the orchestra: you may experience a bit of theatrical magic - including dramatic stage fog - and a unique perspective that may limit your view of the performers’ lower half. You might also find yourself looking up to take in the full spectacle unfolding on stage!
