Book Description
{Christmas Musical Script} This unique production traces God's promises of hope and light throughout biblical history. The story is told audibly by two narrators and visually by a cast that draws the audience into the real-life hopes and fears of God's people from creation to Bethlehem. In all, the cast includes two speaking parts (narrators), eight non-speaking adult/teen male parts, four non-speaking adult/teen female parts, and at least three non-speaking adult parts, as well as groups of young children (shepherds) and older children (angels). The production can utilize a choir and/or worship team and a band/orchestra. Throughout the script, the author identifies song options (both licensed and public domain) in keeping with the storyline, with song selections ultimately at the discretion of the director. The set and props are minimal, with no backdrops needed, as the primary set design is through lighting. Depending on songs selected by the director, the production is approximately 75 to 90 minutes in length. "It blew me away! The entire musical was so rich, so spot on theologically, so full of worship?" (2019). Whether audience members know everything or nothing about the Christmas story, they will see it in a new light! (Originally performed and copyrighted as "The Mystery of Christmas" in 2019)
