Monologue/Drama: Timothy speaks
by Marjorie Dobson

Monologue/Drama: The crafty manager
by Marjorie Dobson
Monologue/Drama: The crafty manager He was a crafty devil, that manager of mine – and devil was the right word for him. He’d been fiddling his expenses for years and the only reason he got away with it was that I wasn’t involving myself in the management side of the business as m…

Monologue: Hannah’s neighbour
by Marjorie Dobson

Reflection: One lost boy
by Marjorie Dobson
Reflection: One lost boy It’s not that unusual for a twelve-year-old boy to stray away from his parents for a while. That’s just about the age when it’s most likely to happen. Twelve is one of those difficult stages in life when childhood is considered to be past, but teenage is …

"Forty-nine days to celebrate Easter? That's seven weeks. We'll never make the Easter eggs last that long! And then Pente - what? " Pilate stamps the file, "Case Closed". He thinks that that is it. A distasteful business, but Jesus the Galilean isn't the first troublemaker he's b…

Monologue/reflection – Who is he?
by Marjorie Dobson
Monologue/reflection – Who is he? He didn’t give us a straight answer, did he? Not even when we challenged him as priests and Levites and told him we’d been sent by the Pharisees. You’d have thought he would have had more respect for authority than that. But what could you expect…
