L:
(coming back over, talking under his breath) The Xmas Ray worked.
Mission accomplished.
E:
(suddenly fine) Feeling much better, thank you.
MS. MAPLE: (confused) Oh, thank goodness! Wise Men, will you please help
unload the boxes that have been arriving all week while the angels,
shepherds, and sheep join me on the stage?
(Agents E, L, and F go offstage to bring on more brown packages,
placing them around the stage.)
MS. MAPLE: (continuing) Let's start at the top of the scene with the angels.
Narr. 2:
(sounding a little lackluster) And there were shepherds living out in
the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night.
MS. MAPLE: Let's stop for a minute. Shepherds, how should you be reacting right
now?
JOSIAH:
(flatly) terrified . . .
MS. MAPLE:I've seen you look terrified, and that's not it.
JOSIAH:
How about this? (phony comic gasp)
MS. MAPLE: (laughs) That's not it, either. (jokingly) How would you react if your
dog ate your iPod?
JOSIAH:
(super scared) AUGH! (Organ SFX)
(Kids laugh)
MS. MAPLE: (chuckling) Yes. We're getting closer. But let's keep working on it.
(She continues blocking them upstage as Agents are talking downstage.)
