The Christians is a contemporary play by American playwright Lucas Hnath that explores the complex relationship between religious faith, individual conscience, and the bonds of community. Set within a large American church, the play examines how differences in belief can challenge personal relationships and collective identities. Through intense dialogue and conflicting perspectives, it raises questions about religious freedom, tolerance, and the right to disagree. The play was presented at DOOSAN Art Center's Space111 in 2024 as part of DOOSAN Humanities Theater's annual program, themed Rights, inviting audiences to reflect on the tensions between personal conviction and communal responsibility.
