Noah's Archives

Synopsis:
Essentially the play is the story of the second coming of Noah's Ark. A flood that sweeps away the 20th-century characters for more than three years aboard an ark with Noah, his son Shem and a menagerie of 36,341 species of unseen creatures serves as the medium for telling audiences to cast aside selfish concerns and preserve the earth. Unlike the original story this crew never finds land again, with the play ending with the sinking of the Ark.

Notes:
Initially written As A serious of monologues taking the biblical characters from the Noah Story And determining what they would be like in 1998 New York, the play grew into A one Act And eventually A two Act play with full band.
