About the Book ~
"Here is a joyous pageant of plays by masters through the ages ~ including Dylan Thomas, Charles Dickens, Thornton Wilder, Langston Hughes, and Hans Christian Andersen, along with The Traditional Christmas Pageant and The Second Shepherd's Play in a modernized, lively version of St. George and the Dragon. Comedies like A Visit from St. Nicholas, Amahl and the Night Visitors, Kringle's Window and A Partridge in a Pear Tree stand beside more serious works such as A Child's Christmas in Wales, Black Nativity, Scrooge and Marley, The Match Girl's Gift and The Long Christmas Dinner.
Lowel Swortzell, himself the author of a number of popular Christmas plays, has brought together works ideally suited for reading or performances in the classroom, sanctuary, theatre, or home. They can also be enjoyed for themselves as holiday reading for the whole family to remind us how Christmas has inspired great writers to their highest dramatic achievements.
Filled with rich comedy, inspirational messages and high holiday cheer, The Twelve Plays of Christmas proves that there is no more effective way to greet the season than with a good play."
