Crowds watch Easter story street performance

People gathered in Gloucester on Good Friday to watch the re-enactment of Jesus' final walk.

The street performance, The Way of the Cross, took place in the city centre with a cast assembled from churches across Gloucestershire.

Christopher Walters, who played Jesus in the performance, walked barefoot through the city and carried a cross. The re-enactment of the crucifixion took place outside Gloucester Cathedral.

Rev Rachel Forrest, of Holy Trinity Church in Longlevens, said the play allowed the audience to see "how graphic and visceral the crucifixion was".
