For two up-and-coming local actors, this persecution, along with Diocletian’s impending visit to Rome, presents an opportunity.

Crassus and Genesius perform their play which mocks baptism and Christianity. Genesius visits a raided home-church. Mentions are made to Christians being tortured for their faith. The series ends with an implied martyrdom.  📱 Social Media https://www.facebook.com/themerrybeggars https://www.instagram.com/themerrybeggars https://twitter.com/themerrybeggars https://www.linkedin.com/company/themerrybeggars
