VANITY

---------------------------------

‘But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.’ 

I’m pretty excited about this play, mainly because it is based on one of my all time favorite scriptures; Ecclesiastes 12. If you haven’t read that scripture, you need to.

The Past... 

This play is narrated by Old Man Martin. He takes us as far back as the garden of Eden as Eve convinces Adam to bite into the fruit.

The Hero....

Jesus enters and is sadden by what Adam and Eve has done....but He knew what needed to be done to save mankind.

We fast forward 2000 years as Martin and his friends are coming from the movies. They are introduced to Jesus by the Town Pastor and all but one accepts salvation.

The Present...

Years later, Martin, now married, and his wife has grown to ignore Jesus because of their busy schedule and it hardly seems that anything will ever change. Martin is embarrassed at a big party he throws with the hope of being promoted in his job, as his friends finds out that he is a Christian and that he Knows Jesus personally.

Complication....

Martin goes through an emotional lapse, blaming Jesus for his mis-fortunes, and eventually he meets someone from his past who pulls him into temptation and leads him away from Jesus for good.

The Purpose....

Vanity highlights the lesser things we sometimes value the most and the important things and people that we often ignore.
