THIS SECOND BOOK IS RECOMMENDED FOR ALL CHRISTIAN INSTITUTIONS AND FAMILIES! THIS IS A SIMPLE NATIVITY DRAMA THAT CAN BE PORTRAYED BY 6 CHARACTERS UP TO 25 CHARACTERS. IT WILL BE A SIMPLE YET INSPIRING PRODUCTION!
Synopsis of the Nativity Pageant Adapted by Neil K. Johnson
Most of us Christians have often participated in, or watched, dramatizations of the nativity pageant at Christmas time. We know the thrill children have in performing it, as well as the enjoyment of the adults. We also know how there are usually many mistakes in these often-hastily prepared productions that diminish the potential effect of this great story.
This script of the Nativity Pageant dramatization (from the King James Version of the New Testament) is a simple dramatization of the events surrounding the birth of our Savior. Its purpose is to present the six scenes of the nativity in a meaningful, yet simple, way.
Some of the highlights are having two narrators and giving very simple, but effective stage movement to the actors. It can be effectively presented with as few as six actors or as many as 25, so it's ideal for presentations in either home or church. It takes about 15 minutes total performance time if you choose to do all 6 scenes.
About the Author:
Neil Johnson, and his current wife, Sharee, both lost their first spouses to cancer. They married and blended their families of 15 kids, and they have 51 grandkids so far. Neil is very active in his church, and he always loves to see the enactment of the Nativity Pageant at Christmas time.
Neil taught school for 44 years - first drama, and then English - and he loves kids. He was able to teach over 7,000 students, and he awoke almost every morning excited to work with them. Many of them won awards for their writing and drama.
Neil received his bachelor's degree from Brigham Young University and his master's degree from the University of Wisconsin at Superior. He was chosen as the 2010 Utah English Teacher of the Year, and he was president of a state English and two state drama and speech teacher associations.
Neil has written The Drama Source Book, as well as, compiled three books containing 30 plays from other authors.
Neil and Sharee live in Lehi, Utah, within easy driving distance of most of their large family.

Bermuda Triangle. Jupiter Ice Moon.
Missing World War II Pilot.
The history of humanity is about to change forever…
On 5 December 1945, five TBM Avenger bombers embarked on a training mission off the coast of Florida and mysteriously vanish without a trace in the Bermuda Triangle.
A PBY search and rescue plane with thirteen crewmen aboard sets out to find the Avengers . . . and never returns.
In 2168, a mysterious five-sided pyramid is discovered on the ocean floor of Jupiter’s icy moon, Europa.
Commander Mac O’Bryant and her team of astronauts are among the first to enter the pyramid’s central chamber. They find the body of a missing World War II pilot, whose hands clutch a journal detailing what happened to him after he and his crew were abducted by aliens and taken to a place with no recognizable stars. As the pyramid walls begin to collapse around Mac and her team, their names mysteriously appear within its pages and they find themselves lost on an alien world.
Stranded with no way home, Mac decides to retrace the pilot’s steps. She never expects to find the man alive. And if the man has yet to die, what does that mean for her and the rest of her crew?

“Where Were You When the World Ended?”
Becca Chaffee (a broken military K-9 Instructor) has checked in to a mysterious rundown motel in the Badlands of South Dakota for only one reason—to end it all. Finger tense on the trigger, her murdered fiancée stops her from pushing a bullet through her brain. But like the song says, “You can check in any time you like, but you can never-ever leave.”
Becca is soon joined by an eclectic group of weary survivors. With each passing hour a terrifying uncertainty grows, psychopathic firefighters with dripping axes mutter in strange tongues, and not-quite-human figures stalk the halls hungering for their agony. As horrific nightmares reveal themselves and the unlikely ensemble makes a last stand against an unholy destruction, Becca soon discovers the malevolent terrors aren’t confined only to the Motel.
“It’s the End of the World as we know it.”
