It is a play/musical that is about Christmas. It tells the story of the Savior's birth. Not only does it tell the story that we all know, it tells the story from the wise man, innkeeper, shepherd, angel, and all the others point of views. It's really cool because you really don't usually think of their side of the story.
The innkeeper for instance, no one ever talks about him. Sure he was known for turning Mary and Joseph away, but have you ever thought about how he felt afterwards? It really makes you think about things like that.
The songs that Micheal McClain (the writer and creator of The Forgotten Carols) has written are absolutely AMAZING. I listen to the songs year round because they have such great meaning. If you want to hear some really great songs look them up on YouTube.
My parents used to take us kids to the play when we were younger and I never really understood it until now. I don't think I have ever felt so touched as I did last night during the production. We often forget the true meaning of Christmas and what it is really all about.
I hope to continue the tradition of The Forgotten Carols with my family. Any of you that get the chance to go to this production should go.
Let us all remember the true meaning of CHRISTmas.
