Theatre Play Mocks Christianity at a Metz Streetfestival

Country: France

Date of incident: July 25, 2013


The Belgian theatre group Compagnie d’Outre Rue, mocked the Christian faith and the Catholic Church in a public display of their program Petites Prophéties Urbaines. The play featured actors in liturgical clothes who, among other things, celebrated a “mass with snacks”. The Pope, the Church and its most sacred rituals were mocked and made fun of.

The anti-Christian play was financed by the city of Metz under socialist mayor Dominique Gros. This video recorded in 2011 shows the play's worst insults: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AocH1fzte38
