Messiah. Multiplied.
What is “Messiah?” Handel’s Messiah tells the story of one man’s work to make his world a better place. But what if Messiah is not someone but something: an ethic of care, a movement of inclusivity? Anchored in Handel’s original work, Messiah. Multiplied. tells a story of struggle, transformation, and affirmation in our modern world, asking “What if ‘Messiah' is a change we can bring about together?”
