REVIEWS
"It is a charming, novel play on an ancient theme. Especially timed for the Christmas season, the play emphasizes what must be a constant complaint of Christian clergymen - that the Christmas message is being lost through materialism, commercialism, and flimsy extraneousness. The very title is suggestive of the danger" ~ Dr Arthur T. Buch - Senior Rabbi of Congregation Share Zedek
"A warm gem of a play. A resourceful and freshly conceived study of the nativity in modern terms" ~ Lois Chaplin, Christian Science Monitor
