The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius Loyola have inspired and formed Christians for centuries. The Exercises have taken on a variety of forms, perhaps none as unique as this one. Rev. Robert VerEecke, S.J. has created a multimedia experience of music, dance, and performance which makes the Exercises come alive with renewed imagination and spiritual impact.

Not that it is my cup of tea, but the link concerning Rev. VerEecke's For the Greater Glory of God performance act is not necessarily wrong. I don't understand it as taking place of, or during, the Liturgy of the Church. It's a, I don't know, play? Catholics are allowed and even encouraged to express their Faith through the arts, this being the performing arts. Even Pope John Paul II wrote plays concerning the Faith early in his life. Who knows? Maybe it is orthodox and thought provoking. There are stealth Jesuits out there who still defend the Faith! Admittedly, like I said, this type of performance has never been my cup of tea.
