Run Time | Around 35 minutes. [Estimated!] |
Music | None. |
Style | One-act play for a class-sized cast, with a good range of speaking parts. No set requirements. A deliberately comic piece but keeping the traditional story in view. |
Synopsis | The traditional nativity story takes an inventive comic turn, with lazy shepherds, an unlikely group of visitors with Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh, and a bit of confusion over what to call the baby... but all the elements of the traditional story come together in the end. After all, this is how it really happened... well, more or less. |
