Two children are discussing the possible origins of the Christmas Story, with some interesting suggestions...
A five-part production, but it's very flexible in how many puppets/humans you use. (One of the parts is a reader, who reads the scriptures - but this could also be a puppet)
Message from
Alec Whitwell:
"Beth" and "Elliott" are puppets, but "Dad" (and even the "Reporter") could also be a puppet. There is also a reader called "Hope", who is appointed to read the scriptures, but this can be incorporated into a puppet part, or read by one of the existing performers. We simply had a human read these from the congregation. It's very flexible!
