Christmas Recital Dec 16, 05

2005 Conservatory Youth Christmas Pageant

 About the Play/Showcase - Synopsis

IMAGINE you’re a teenager living a simple life and expecting someday to marry your sweetheart. You are then told in secret that you will be the parents of the Son of God. Think how your family and friends will react. Will they believe you? You will face gossip and alienation. Will you feel as if you have been blessed or cursed?

 

With a Disco Dancing Mary, Karate Kicking Joseph, Skateboarding Archangel Gabriela, 3 Queens and Talking Disgruntled Sheep What Child Is This?© celebrates the visitation of the Archangel Gabriel to Mary, the courtship of Joseph and Mary, the pilgrimage of the 3 Kings and the birth of Jesus of Nazareth in a comedic and endearing retelling of the Christmas Story.
