A Christmas comedy duologue for assembly, concert, or drama students. Two characters offer a literal and ‘honest’ reading of a family Christmas letter. Clean enough for school setting and a great opportunity for two performers to hone their comic timing and vocal tone without too much need for movement or props/costume/resources. If you enjoy, please leave a review!
