Publisher's Synopsis
Need a Covid-safe Nativity play? You have found it! This rhyming Nativity is designed to work with pre-recorded or live performances. With an adaptable cast size to accommodate all situations, this is the only play you will need this year. Tell the traditional story of God With Us, with some funny twists and a heart-felt message. Using rhyme to help children deliver their lines, this nativity can be performed in person (while remaining safely distanced), or on-line with videos edited together. It's fun and easy for children to perform, while the nuanced message reminds us that Jesus is more than just a baby in a manger. It's snappy and sassy, modern yet moving. We learn how everyone who met Jesus that first Christmas, took home more than they brought. Will you take Jesus home with you this year? 'It's the timeless story that will refresh your spirit and restore your hope.' 'I like Colin, the apprentice shepherd.' 'I liked the humility of Joseph, when he said, "I'll serve my king 'til kingdom come." I found that very moving.'As they gazed in awe and wonder at their baby, sleeping sound, silently, beyond their vision, all of heaven gathered round. God no longer just in glory, but right here where humans dwell. God made flesh to be God With Us, Jesus, our Emmanuel.
