Reply to "Drama or Newsroom Workshop: Lessons & Ideas for the Creation Story"

Interactive Audience Participation Storytelling/Drama

Melanie Vaughn had asked:

quote:
Years ago, I found a skit online (maybe through this website even) that told the story of creation in a humorous and repetitive way, using people to represent the different things that God created each day. For instance, the person portraying the Sun would say "Beam, Beam" over and over again during the skit. (I suppose it could also say, grow food, warm you!)
The Moon might have said "Glow, Glow". The Stars might have said "Shine, Shine" and "look at the heavens." The kids loved it! The story came alive for them. Does this sound the least bit familiar to anyone? I could rewrite the skit, but if it's out there somewhere already written...? Thanks if you can help!



Luanne's answer...
The only thing I can think of that it might be is "In the Beginning" by John Cosper, Jr. found at https://www.dramatix.org.nz/ar...es/in_beginning.html

It's a fun script that has lots of potential for adaptation and staging.

For example:

Narrator- And God called the expanse 'Sky' which separated the Rains...

[Have the Rains make a 'Sssss' sound.]

Narrator- From the Seas.

[Have the Seas make a 'Whoosh!' sound and hand motions.]
