Errata Announcment.

Ahem. (clears throat).
It has been notice that the Artist Formerly Known as "Star" Appeared in the East and then traveled to the West.
On behalf of the Zorastorian Society, I apologize for any religous or mental difficulty this may have engendered.

Thanks for clearing things up, Chief. I knew we were from the east, anyway.
(but see, this is all part of my Method interpretation of my character as a total clod who hasn't studied properly.)

Phil the Wise Guy pedals furiously up to the stable on his red tricycle. He clambers off, lights his stump of a stogie and looks critically at the scene before his beady eyes.
"OK, OK, let's get all dis "menage a twah" sorted out heah.
Now dat we got da angel off her fuzzy white butt and da star done its t'ing, time to act!
Foist, get dat sheep outta da way! Gah, an me widdout my mint jelly!
Secondly, time to adore da child o heaven."
<aside to Chief Wise Man> "Ummmm... how do we adore? I wuz expectin' little pink hearts or sumpin to coicle aroun' my head. O well, "when in Jerusalem..."
<Phil walks up to manger and shakes Baby's hand.>
"Hey kid! How ya doin'? Good ta see yous."
<Phil looks at the gifts the Wise Men are trying to pull from their robes>
Man, dese might suit yous: Got a really nice 27" color tv and a bottle of Scotch dat happened to fall off da back of a camel my cousin Louie was drivin', and I found dis spiffy black leather coat hanging around somewhere wit' no owner. (Sorry about the hole over the heart, a little leather fix will take care o dat in a jiff.) And when yous up to it, I happen to have a poisonal friend down at Madam Hussein's House O' Happiness, and she'll take care of...ummm. She'll take care o yous, yeah, dat's it!

(Angel 6 appears, distributes buckets of frosty lager to all the good boys and girls -- and to Erin -- and kicks the sheep collection back into the pit.)
(A Messenger Angel zips up, hands Angel 6 an official-looking envelope, and zips off. Angel 6 opens it.)
"Your friends and neighbors send you greetings..." Oh, crud . I've been called to ACTIVE DUTY. "Stand with flaming sword at the entrance of the Garden of Eden." Oh, get real. As if! The BIG SCENE for the angels is coming up, and I get shipped off to EDEN!
Well, that's the Angelic Host for you...okay, kids, I'm off. See you Sunday night, or maybe Monday if the transport gets hosed up.
(Exits, visibly annoyed.)

(Angel 3 looks at the disconcerted sheep and shakes her head slowly. The Tour Bus is filling up and soon it will be time to hit the high road to Jerusalem. Under the light of the Star, gently leading,still proceeding, she sings "It came" to the tune of "We three Kings of Orient are". The Heavenly Host (such as are present) join in the choruses. )
"It came one bright and starry night,
Like a searchlight into sight
Extraterrestial
Quite celestial,
A UFO? Not quite.
Chorus
Oooo It's a teatray -
No, it's not.
It's essential to the plot!
Fusion reaction, hydrogen,helium
We wish upon the Star.
Wise Men 4 have gathered around,
Could be more but they can't be found.
Irritating,
Calculating
a shopping list on the ground
Chorus
Oooo It's a teatray -
No, it's not.
It's essential to the plot!
Fusion reaction, hydrogen,helium
We wish upon the Star.
Let them cast your horoscope
Birth dates, signs and all that dope.
Vaguely seeming
Quite misleading
Accurate? What a hope!
Chorus
Oooo It's a teatray -
No, it's not.
It's essential to the plot!
Fusion reaction, hydrogen,helium
We wish upon the Star.
(Angel 3 smiles broadly. She has had a few frosty lagers, with scotch chasers. Angel 6 tried to make her drink something called a "Depth Charge". It may explain the following:)
"I'm a little teapot, short and stout...
Children, children Tink's dying! If you all say you believe in fairies, maybe she'll get better. Will you, children? Say it...
<loud whisper from offstage.>
What do you mean, wrong pantomime?

Hey, I've just woke up in the Green Room - where is everybody?

If not, I'll just slip quietly away and return for my curtain call on the 22nd!

And seeing as the Wise Guys are well and truly on their way, let's all click our fingers to the rhythm of 'King of the Road'

You know, I think those sheep have got something against me. Still, I shan't let it spoil my enjoyment of the performance. Fortunately the violin was in a hard case over night, so it's only the mandolin they managed to try and break. The damage is minimal, and it'll be in hard case over night as well.
And just in case you were thinking of trying to cause anymore damage, let me point out that I can also manage the tin whistle and the recorder as an option. And you don't want to know where I'll locate them if you try any more tricks
Spit roast sheep will have nothing on you.
But anyway, it being Christmas - goodwill to all men and sheep and all that - can't we call a truce? I'm struggling to say nasty to you. It's just not in my character. I'd rather leave that stuff to Herod, the Evil Henchman and Jesus' Evil Twin. So, pax??

Inspired by her singing early this morning (her time), the Spare Shepherd, now in the bathroom washing off stage makeup, begins to sing again...
"In my imagination
I searched the starlit sky so bright
In my imagination,
there I saw you in the night.
And on the day I saw you,
how could I help but realize?
My lucky star was smiling right there before my very eyes...
Two lovely eyes at me they were beaming, gleaming,
I was star struck.
You're all my lucky charms,
I'm lucky in your arms.
You've opened heaven's portal,
here on Earth for this poor mortal...
You are my lucky star...

Mary, dressed in a charming blue travelling outfit, struggles in towing a large suitcase on wheels behind her. She drops it by the washing machine which an invisible stage hand has conveniently positioned in a corner of the stage, and hopes that someone kind and thoughtful will put her blues through the wash for her later. The more observant members of the audience will note that the cushion has grown.
Phew, it's good to be home.
Now, I wonder why Joseph wanted to see me for that little chat tonight.... I'd better go and slip into something more comfortable and get ready to see him....

What have we learned
Since we begun?
- Mary’s expecting
God’s only son.
Her sister Liz
Is also soon due.
(That bit we covered
During scene two).
Various wise men
Got very lost
Merciless mocking
Their only cost.
But now they have seen
A miraculous light
- For which we thank Erin
Who came through on the night.
Then they all headed
Off to the pub
For some Old Peculiar
And plateful of grub.
Let’s hope they remember
To pack up the gifts,
Sort out the transport
And organise lifts.
But our play’s hardly started
There’s surprises galore
For Mary and Joseph
Next, in scene four.
