Each of these short sketches requires a handful of actors, simple costumes and everyday proprs. Entertaining and thought-provoking, the sketches will appeal to all ages and cover a number of special occasions through the year, including Christmas, Mother's Day and Harvest. The book also contains a short practical guide to performing each drama. Ideal for injecting fun into church services, the sketches are also suitable for outreach events, youth work, children's camps and church weekends away.
Currently a writer for YMCA England, Peter Shaw has an extensive background in drama both in and outside the Church.
