Two Christmas Trees on Their Way to The Great Pyramid of Giza: New One-Act Christmas Drama/Comedy
Happy Christmas in July!
I can always tell when it’s Christmas production audition time as I begin getting a slew of Christmas monologue sales here! Well! Enjoy browsing Christmas monologues during this intense heat, and if you’re considering producing a short but sophisticated Christmas play for 2 strong actors, with a bit of humor, and a bit of drama, check out my new play, TWO CHRISTMAS TREES ON THEIR WAY TO THE GREAT PYRAMID OF GIZA. While yes, the 2 characters are talking Christmas Trees, this isn’t exactly a children’s play. It’s touching and charming and has funny moments; but it’s also about our short time on Earth, what we leave behind, what we choose to do with time we have, and whom we choose to spend those precious years—or minutes—with (think the musicians playing as the Titanic goes down…). All told through the voices of two Douglas Firs. So what exactly is this play o’ trees about?
Dear Tree and Darling Tree have lived the past 8 years side-by-side on the Christmas Tree Farm. But as the family with matching Santa hats (and an axe) keeps checking them out, they realize a hard truth: one of them is going to be chopped down. Now. Will they live on together as stumps in the ground, or will they be separated to live as Christmas Trees in people’s homes before dying out completely? And is there any way they can escape this impending fate?
