Eleven Snappy Scripts for the Holiday Season
By Michael Buss
Looking for a play, or plays, to stage this coming December and want bright, new material? You need Seasonings! Enjoy reading plays on a cold winter night? You would love Seasonings.
This collection of Holidays plays has been carefully selected from the many plays Michael Buss has written, and seen performed, over the last 23 years as a member of New Voices Playwrights Theater, in Orange County, California.
There's something for everyone -- from a simple evocation of Martin Luther as the legendary author of the carol Away in a Manger, to the dilemma of two astronauts stranded on Mars at Christmastime, to the heart rending story of a retired teacher who always expects his son to show up for Christmas, though he never does. In one play a frightened young couple accidentally kill a man who has come to seek revenge on them. And in another the characters take you back in time to uncover whether there really was no room at the inn in Bethlehem.
FORMAT: 6" x 9" paperback. Price $15.50. Length 180 pages, includes a bonus dramatic monologue, especially for church performance.
