(Christian Headlines) A gender-inclusive, polytheistic, multi-cultural rendition of Handel’s Messiah is gaining praise from those on the Left for its LGBT imagery and its reimagining of Jesus as a Muslim woman.
The New York Times posted a complimentary story about the rendition, called Messiah: Complex, which was conducted in collaboration between the Against the Grain Theater and the Toronto Symphony Orchestra.
A 78-minute film of the performance can be streamed on the website of Against the Grain Theater, which calls it a “daring reimagining of Handel’s classic featuring voices from across Canada.”
