The Seasons of Christ

Four Easy-to-stage Plays for Easter and Christmas

About This Product The Seasons of Christ is a compilation of four very easy-to-stage plays for seasonal productions. Two are for Christmas and two are for Easter. All have small casts and minimal set requirements.

• The Advent Cross weaves the meaning of the advent wreath with biblical characters made contemporary, as the story of Christmas and the sacrifice of Christ are illuminated.
• In The Journal Jackie and Kate find themselves involved in a mystery during the Christmas rush when they find an old journal. This script works as an evangelism tool during the advent season.
• Nightwatch is a contemporary look at the death and resurrection of Jesus as told through the eyes of two soldiers who take part in His crucifixion.
• A Miracle's Witness is a reader's theatre play from the point of view of the women who were drawn to the ministry and teaching of Jesus: Mary Magdalene, Mary, and Salome.
