Synopsis:
The carol "Good King Wencesias" is the basis for this lively 45 minute farce. The good king endeavors to present a gift to a peasant, but encounters unanticipated difficulties regarding political correctness. Much fun is derived from the "thither and yon" of Olde English. This play is ideal for Christian and secular groups of all ages.
