| Synopsis: | A humorous look at everyday life in Israel at the time of Christ's birth. Everyone from the Nativity story is there - but have you ever seen them like this before? There's Herod the Hugely Horrible who thinks he's Elvis Presley in a future life; the gossipy innkeepers' wives whose inns are stuffed with travellers; and many more, all getting on with their everyday lives, unaware that the new baby in Elisheba's stable will change the course of history. Bethlehem is fun to perform, humorous to watch and easily rehearsed because each scene is completely self-contained. | |||||
