Bob's Christian Plays and Dramas
My name is Bob Denison and I write Christian plays and dramas. Below is a description of four plays, with the entire script of each on pages 2, 3 and 4, and a video demo and an audio demo (click below).
Also, in their entirety, are four 5-minute skits, "Second Hearing", "George", "Choose" and "The Bride of Christ", which are good for evangelism and Christian growth. "Second Hearing" reveals our true state of being. "George" uses the obituaries to illustrate what's most important in life. "Choose" uses a drum to illustrate how we serve God or the devil, regardless. "The Bride of Christ" encourages us to have a deep relationship with Jesus.
Please feel free to perform these plays and skits free of charge.
#1 "Who Is Jesus?"
Three actors portray the life of Jesus from the Book of
Matthew. No props or sets. Done in a fast moving, hard
hitting way that will appeal to teens and up. Easily transportable
to venues outside of a church. An actor's delight to perform.
Runs approximately 30 minutes.
Note: To those interested in drama for evangelism, please
consider putting this play, or one of your choosing,
on a streaming video website and advertising the site
in non-Christian papers and publications. My email is
rldenison@hotmail.com if you have any questions.

#2 "What If Jesus Never Came?"
A drama suitable for anytime, but especially Christmas.
Nine speaking parts (only one with very many lines), six
non-speaking parts, one part reading from script. Two solos.
Shows what world would be like if Jesus never came by
transporting a sister to Bethlehem and then to the Kingdom
of Darkness.
Has brought tears to eyes and lumps in throats. Running time
of 45 minutes.

the Bride" (may need first click to download 3:33 demo)]
#3 "Christmas Rapping"
A children's play that tells the Christmas story as though it
were happening today. Uses raps to help tell the story of
Jesus' birth in a humorous but thought-provoking way.
Approximately 15 minutes in length.
#4 Jesus the King
(Note: The script for this play follows the script of "Christmas Rapping")
Several children visit Mary while Jesus is still a baby in Nazareth. This
is a children’s play suitable for Easter. It is very easy to perform. There
is a small cast (very few lines) with powerful visuals using a shadow
screen to show how Jesus became all things so that we might be set
free. Length is 12-15 minutes.
If you can't find what you are looking for here, there are many wonderful full scripts in the archives at Dramatix.org.
