I am not sure who got this idea to re-stage the birth of Jesus in modern Georgia. It is a different take on the bible account of his birth quite obviously.
Possible Spoilers: This is a magnificent play about Jesus. currently I am doing it in my highshcool fall production.
Great video record of a great musical. Tom Key and the bluegrass backing band are great in this video recording of a 1985 performance.
I first saw this movie when I was about five I think, and I don't think I entirely understood it until now, ten years later, but at the time it was great fun and I really liked the music. I've been watching it at least once every year since and it has never gotten old.
