Wow...
Every year I order the script for the RivKids Christmas Play from one certain drama service. I have always liked their scripts and they are pretty cute. I read through their catalog and found a script I thought sounded great. I ordered all the scripts and was set to go. One day during our meeting, we decided to read completely through it and see if we could add some parts somewhere. Well, we got through 95% of the play and then it all went downhill from there. The play suddenly took on a very Catholic feel. It started talking about the Christ Child and how Mary performed miracles and the Madonna statue, and it went on and on. So we obviously couldn't do this play.
that roll, I certainly couldn't. It doesn't say they prayed to her or they
took part in a mass, it was simply Christmas and they were caught up in the
miracle of it all. It is after all, a pretty unbelievably miraculous story
about a baby named Jesus and his Mommy Mary"
The drama company has a strict policy regarding refunds... they just don't do them. I thought for the fun of it I would contact the company to see if they would make an exception because of the unique situation. Here is the email I got back from the company...
"Wow! I don't see that as Catholic, it certainly isn't intended to be. I
honor and celebrate Mary as the mother of Jesus. Not just anyone could fillthat roll, I certainly couldn't. It doesn't say they prayed to her or they

"Mommy Mary"?? Wow... that's all I can say.

The big question is: did you get the refund?
:)
Seriously, though, I love the fact that you guys are doctrinally astute enough to catch stuff like that. Nice work.
Yes, thankfully, she did decide to let us have a refund. I was very happy to say the least :)
I say do the play, but rewrite it to speak out about how this sort of doctrine is wrong. What a great opportunity to teach the kids that there are others with different beliefs and giving them to tools to deal with it.
Of course I have not read it so I couldn’t tell you how easy it would or wouldn’t be to change the play :o)
Interesting point on baby Jesus and mommy Mary. I wonder what Jesus called his mother and father? Mom, Ma, mommy, dad, daddy, pappy, father….
Sorry to the tangent, just something I had never thought of before :o)
Way to go. But what are you doing up at 4am?? I know you will do a great job with whatever you choose for Christmas!!
Thanks..
