| 520 | _a"The White Christmas and Other Merry Christmas Plays" by Walter Ben Hare is a collection of festive plays likely written in the early 20th century. This work features a variety of morality plays centered around the themes of kindness, goodwill, and the joy of the Christmas season, making it ideal for holiday performances, particularly by children. The collection includes characters like Mary and Joseph from the nativity story, along with original tales such as "Anita's Secret," featuring a young Italian immigrant girl and the figure of Santa Claus. The opening of the first play, "The White Christmas," sets the stage during a cold Christmas night in Bethlehem, following Mary and Joseph as they search for lodging. Through a prologue, significant themes of hope and the Christmas spirit are introduced, emphasizing kindness and the joy of giving. As Joseph seeks shelter for the about-to-give-birth Mary, we are introduced to various townsfolk and shepherds, hinting at the multitude of characters that will enrich the unfolding story. The ambiance is filled with a blend of magical music and the promise of great joy, which sets the tone for the holiday plays that follow. (This is an automatically generated summary.) | ||
