Finally, in a comically confusing scene, Jacob discovers his bride hidden by a veil is not the ravishing Rachel but her frumpish sister Leah. When confronted, Laban, the father, feigns surprise at the “slight misunderstanding.” He then cons Jacob into more servitude to gain Rachel as well. Years later Jacob and his wives are the parents of...

Here's a fantastic journey through the minds of the Founding Fathers and how today's citizens perceive them. Two "generic" founding fathers, Patrick and James, travel to modern day to show people what it was like to write the Constitution, and how important its principles are. The two characters replay the key dramas of the Constitutional Convention and then in a more lighthearted mood, decide how to use the tools of contemporary life, i.e., advertizing and television to get their message across to the American People. If you're into contemporary flag-waving this is your show. The score ...

Confused about him and curious why the other church members haven't returned to change out of their costumes, the two men return to the nativity scene on stage to find the cast, like Balthazar, really believe themselves to be at the stable that special, holy night. Five original, unforgettable songs. This is an id...

This is a sensitive and insightful treatment of the boyhood of Jesus, a plausible near-history. The story centers around his family's trip to Jerusalem for the Feast of the Passover. On their way there Jesus performs a miracle, to aid another child, and the lonliness in Jesus' heart melts away with a new understanding of his place in the world. When the family arrives in Jerusalem, Jesus turns up "missing." They finally find him in the temple, instructing and amazing his elders with profound truth and insight. This is a moving and imaginative story with a lov...
