Watch And Pray
Meditations In Dramatic Form For The Season Of Lent
Neil Ellis Orts

Watch And Pray was written for use by untrained actors. There are no character roles and the dialogue can be divided among as many people as are available to participate.

The seven dramatic mediations begin with Ash Wednesday, followed with the five mid-week readings and conclude with a Maundy Thursday presentation.

Themes are:
Self-knowledge
Repentance
Growth
Patience
Discipline
Courage
