Part 1 and part 2 performed. Part 3 scheduled for performance around Easter 2005.

Description
On a stormy evening in April two stagehands are working on a production set when a heavy beam falls on one of them. Jesus shows up on the scene and heals the stagehand. This miraculous event causes suspicion and fear among the nation's religious leaders, resulting in the conviction and execution of Jesus. Agents Mulder and Scully from the FBI fly out to Hollywood, CA to investigate the events surrounding Jesus. They discover that He isn't a normal man, and between a suspected coverup, visits from a secret informant, and a casket suddenly empty, the agents discover a truth that is life changing.

If you've ever watched the TV series "The X-Files" you will already be familiar with characters Agent Mulder and Agent Scully. X-Files Resurrection is a spin-off of this series using Mulder and Scully as the main characters in the skit. The story is a modern version of Jesus' life in the New Testament. I've always wondered how Mulder and Scully would investigate the paranormal event of Jesus' resurrection, so this skit is an attempt to think about that.
