Rhyming Nativity by Richard Coleman |
Roles | Minimum Male roles = 2. Minimum Female roles = 2. Minimum total with doubling = 8. Minimum total without doubling = 30. No chorus.

Run Time | Around 15 minutes. [Estimated!] |
Music | None. |
Style | Simple nativity play told in rhyme. No specific requirements for set or props. |
Synopsis | See the Gospels according to St. Luke and St. Matthew (chapter 2 in each case). Taxation, Bethlehem overcrowded, no room at the inn, baby laid in a manger, shepherds in the fields, wise men bringing gifts. All of that - and a stable of talking animals. |
