The Special Gift
Bethlehem is crowded, all the inns and hotels are full. When Mary and Joseph call at an inn, the innkeeper's children, Jacob and Ruth, suggest the stable as a last resort. These two children then see the amazing events that follow - the visit of the shepherds, who describe angels telling them to find a new king - three foreign leaders who tell of following a star in the sky, which will take them to a king - and all these visitors are bringing presents for the new baby. Jacob and Ruth are despondent, they have no suitable gifts.... until they hit on a simple but deserving idea."THE SPECIAL GIFT" tells the story of Christmas through the eyes of a Roman Soldier who narrates, and the actions of the two children. It has four original, charming songs to illustrate the story, two major speaking parts (Jacob and Ruth), one part requiring a good reader (Roman Soldier) and smaller one line parts as well as opportunities for movement and dancing.
