christmas tableau

the set
main movers (king, registrar, inn keeper, joseph, mary
wise men and star holder
our choir of angels and herd of shepherds
And the day after thanksgiving was our Christmas pageant. After a scare that we wouldn’t get the church as planned we just had to move the production up an hour. (the nurses’ graduation was kicking us out even though we’d booked a month in advance). We also had to share the stage set up with the graduation décor so our stable didn’t have quite the backdrop we’d imagined but then not much is the way you plan it here. There was no power so our attempt at getting a sound system working was thwarted (I was relieved as usually they are turned up so loud you can’t understand anything anyway). Our narrator was our kindergarten teacher and you could hear her very well. The songs were accompanied by Dr. Barbara Nagy on her guitar. We had a registrar and innkeeper, mary and joseph, main angel, king herod, star holder and 3 wisemen. Everyone else was in the herd of shepherds or in the host of angels. We sang silent night, away in a manger, long time ago in Bethlehem, twinkle twinkle little star and joy to the world. It was short and if you were late you most likely missed it…which was too bad but then we had to get out for the graduation. Here are a few pics that I have…wish I could put up a video but that would be pushing my internet capabilities and time…
