34. BLESSED REDEEMER a short play by Richard L. Provencher

35. WWI Christmas Drama - A Silent Night by Ken John  
    Written for a Christmas performance by and for a smallish group of English Philology students at a teacher training college in Poland.
    
    The emphasis in these nativity scenes is to highlight some of the results of Christ's coming into the world.
    
    The idea is to take a contemporary and multimedia approach, deconstructing the hype of Christmas and presenting the essence of what really counts in this season.
    
    The form is something of a collage of different representations of the elements of the Christmas story, to illuminate the essence of Christmas.
    
    The WWI events which inspired much of the action are true. It is hoped that the cause of reconciliation and fresh dialogue between historical enemies will be encouraged through this production.
