My husbands first published book! :-)
Meriwether (Contemporary Drama Services) published one of George’s scripts! It is called from Garden to Tomb, and follows Christs walk through a series of interactive stations.
Here’s a quick description:
Discover the ancient tradition of the way of the cross by following the path of Jesus from the Garden of Gethsemane to his tomb. Characters at eight stations pantomime key events from our Savior’s final hours, including his betrayal and arrest, his condemnation by Pilate and his crucifixion. As they walk through, the congregation participates in each station’s scene in unusually poignant ways with activities as varied as signing a funeral guestbook, receiving Communion, betraying a friend for a reward, washing their hands in imitation of Pilate, handling a crown of thorns, carrying a crossbeam, pounding a spike into wood, writing their names on a “Remember me” placard and placing a lily by a memorial to Jesus. A complete description of the setup and how-to is included. An unforgettable experience in homage to the one who died so we could live.
Playkit includes 8 scripts and rights to reproduce copies.
There is an online component to the script too - a username and password provided in the printed book will give you access to directors notes, set building instructions, publicity ideas, and extensive photos of the original production.
For more information, visit George’s website, or buy the script from Meriwether
Interesting sidenote: George got permission from the Vatican in order to publish this, as he used the titles and themes from the Catholic stations of the cross.
