Download or read book Nativity Dramas written by Keith Hewitt and published by CSS Publishing. This book was released on 2007 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone knows the nativity story -- the inn, the stable, and all the rest. If your traditional Christmas pageant has become a bit stale and you want to give it new life, this collection of engaging plays is sure to fit your needs. Keith Hewitt gives the usual narrative a modern treatment by adapting characters and settings from four popular television series (Blue's Clues, CSI, Cops, and Trading Spaces) and transferring them to the events in Bethlehem. By twisting the lens a little to change the focus, these sketches tell how common people are affected by incredible events. Audiences will love these entertaining programs, and they'll have fun watching the characters as they learn a valuable lesson. All four plays are specifically designed to be produced in churches, and can be easily staged by congregations of almost any size. There are roles suitable for a range of ages from kindergarten through adult, allowing you to involve the whole congregation in the production. "Ewe's Clues" is intended primarily for younger children (although adults and older children will also enjoy it) and has a running time of approximately 30 minutes. "Cops: Bethlehem," "CSI: Bethlehem," and "Trading Spaces: Bethlehem" each have a running time of approximately 45 minutes, and are designed for older audiences (though children will get something out of them as well). Keith Hewitt is a youth leader at Wilmot United Methodist Church in Wilmot, Wisconsin, and in his "day job" is a quality analyst. He is a graduate of the University of Wisconsin - Green Bay.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Nativity Plays: Edited With Introduction, Notes, and Glossary There has hitherto been but little intensive and minute study of the English mystery plays. The texts of some of them have been well edited, and their gen eral aspects and problems have been described by such men as Chambers and Cayley, in books which combine, in a delightful manner, deep scholarship and true art; but the field is so large that in general studies there is neither time nor space for the discussion of minor problems. It is indisputable that the work of Cham bers and Cayley is more important and significant than the minute study of sources, authorship, and the like; yet the latter, particularly in these plays, has an im portant place.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 25-minute Christmas Nativity pageant tells the story of Jesus Christ from creation to present day. The birth of Christ is seen as an event with a much wider scope than an incident that occurred long ago in Bethlehem. This drama is unique in highlighting Jesus' birth as part of the greater picture of God's activity throughout history: in creation, in the words of the prophets, in the cross, in the resurrection, and in our world today. The Word Became Flesh provides drama that is biblically sound, educational, and thought-provoking. Shirley M. Wickland is an instructor in computer-aided design and materials science for the Trade and Technical Department of Moraine Park Technical College, Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. She is an honors graduate from Milwaukee School of Engineering with a Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering. Her various professions have included lab technician in a hospital, instructor of Adult Education for Hawkeye Institute of Technology, and Development Engineer and Design Engineer for John Deere Company. Wickland is a certified lay speaker for the United Methodist Church, Chairperson of the Wisconsin Conference Board of Church and Society, a Certified Instructor of Disciple Bible Study, a Member of Adoptive Families of America, and a Sunday school teacher of many years.

When she sees how forgiving her niece and children are to a boy who steals her purse to buy food, she realizes her own greed. The piece ends with the family all sitting down to dinner and lighting the first candle in the Advent wreath.The Not-Too-Perfect Nativity Play (4 male, 6 female, 5 teen male, 8 teen female, 2 boys, 3 girls)This 70 minute play requires a large cast of adults, teens and children. In Act I, Miss Tate-the director of this year's Nativity Play tells everyone that adults and children will be the primary cast members instead of the teens who have been doing the play for several years. The first rehearsal is very bumpy and after the parents and kids leave, the teens agree to help Miss Tate with her challenges. The second Act includes the play itself with traditional Christmas carols, hymns and songs. Miss Tate and the teens are very surprised how well everything goes. Star Track(8 male, 5 female, extras)A 5-scene play, this script mixes modern-day reporters with the traditional Christmas story and people. It begins on the streets of Jerusalem, goes to Herod's palace, the Shepherd's village and finally the stable. (about 30 minutes)

Book excerpt: "This 'new' play is about 700 years old. It was first written down about 1340 A.D. when it was part of The York Cycle of Mystery plays. Thereafter it was performed every year for 300 years. Oddly whenever this version has been presented in modern times it has also tended to become an annual community event. Seldom is it possible to offer a play of such extraordinary quality"--Cover.

Download or read book Drama in Medieval and Early Modern Europe written by Nadia Thérèse van Pelt and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-03-28 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drama in Medieval and Early Modern Europe moves away from the customary conceptual framework that artificially separates ‘medieval’ from ‘early modern’ drama to explore the role of drama and spectacle in England, France, the Low Countries, Spain, Italy, Switzerland, and the German-speaking areas that now constitute Austria and Germany. This book investigates the ranges of dramatic and performative techniques and strategies that playmakers across Europe used to adapt their work to the changing contexts in which they performed, and to the changing or expanding audiences that they faced. It considers the different views expressed through drama and spectacle on shared historical events, how communities coped with similar issues and why they ritually recycled these themes through reinvented or alternative forms that replaced or existed alongside their predecessors. A wide variety of genres of play are discussed throughout, including visitatio sepulchri (visit to the tomb) plays; Easter and Passion plays and morality plays; the French civic mystère; Italian sacre rappresentazioni performed by choirboys in the context of the church; Bürgertheater from the Swiss Confederacy; drama performed for the purpose of royal entertainment and propaganda; May and summer games; and the commercial, professional theatre of Shakespeare and Lope de Vega. Examining the strength of drama in relation to the larger cultural forces to which it adapted, and demonstrating the use of social, political, economic, and artistic networks to educate and support the social structures of communities, Drama in Medieval and Early Modern Europe offers a broader understanding of a shared European past across the traditional chronological divide of 1500. It is ideal for students of social history, and the history of medieval and early modern drama or literature.

Download or read book Female Mourning and Tragedy in Medieval and Renaissance English Drama written by Katharine Goodland and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grieving women in early modern English drama, this study argues, recall not only those of Classical tragedy, but also, and more significantly, the lamenting women of medieval English drama, especially the Virgin Mary. Looking at the plays of Shakespeare, Kyd, and Webster, this book presents a new perspective on early modern drama grounded upon three original interrelated points. First, it explores how the motif of the mourning woman on the early modern stage embodies the cultural trauma of the Reformation in England. Second, the author here brings to light the extent to which the figures of early modern drama recall those of the recent medieval past. Finally, Goodland addresses how these representations embody actual mourning practices that were viewed as increasingly disturbing after the Reformation. Female Mourning and Tragedy in Medieval and Renaissance English Drama synthesizes and is relevant to several areas of recent scholarly interest, including the performance of gender, the history of emotion, studies of death and mourning, and the cultural trauma of the Reformation.
