What Churches Around the World Have Been Waiting for: An Effective Christian Drama Resource that's Easy to Follow and Fun to Use! We Exceed ALL of Your Needs.

Dear Drama Ministry Leader,

  I've spent the last two years putting together the best package of original material possible to make your life easier.  With any ministry in the church, there comes a boat load of trials and mistakes.  Being a pastor and a drama ministry leader myself, I know what it's like to receive something that is either incomplete or doesn't work as advertised.  That's why I've spent two years writing (and the past two summers testing) my new techniques to make sure that you will be satisfied from the moment that you open your package.

  Before I go any further, I'd like to thank the churches in Dayton, Ohio, Cleveland, Canton, Chicago, Fayetteville, NC, a host of cities in South Carolina, New York, Austin, Texas, Montgomery and Birmingham, Alabama, Atlanta, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Miami and Daytona Beach for allowing me to test my new material and/or workshop strategies on you.  You are just as much responsible for Drama Tools Deluxe as Playhouse Ministries and New Branch Theatre Company.  I'd like to especially thank New Life Bible Church in Fayetteville, NC.  They have allowed us to camp out there and make their church family our second home.

HERE'S THE DEAL

  With that said, let's make this as short and sweet as possible.  Over the last ten years, Playhouse Ministries has put out an organized compilation of plays and ministry tools for local churches called Drama Tools.  Every other year, we've released a new version (Drama Tools 1 through 5).  We've learned more with each version but to be honest with you, I've felt like a musician trying to make the perfect album.  Even when it's finished, a good musician will always feel like they could have done more.   To take the metaphor further, there have always been a few number one hits within each version of Drama Tools but I've never been able to put a package out that was a complete blockbuster success - until now.  I've taken my time and listened to what churches were requesting from my organization. 

  Drama Tools Deluxe Edition is exactly what it sounds like.  Most drama resource centers are obsessed with quantity.  They figure that the more plays and skits that are included, the better the Christian Drama resource will be.  However, experience has taught us that this couldn't be further from the truth.  Frankly, the more junk that you throw in a package, the harder it is to find the good stuff.  It's like digging through the five dollar movie bin at Wal-Mart.  You know it's a deal in there somewhere but it's just not worth looking for.  I've discovered by interviewing churches over the years that quality trumps quantity any day.  Most active drama ministries perform perform four to six plays per year.  Only two of those are going to be longer than thirty minutes or so.  Those are the facts.

HERE IS WHAT I'M OFFERING

 Ten of the best big plays that you'll ever do (including seasonal dramas), 20 or so smaller skits in case you need to get something together quickly; a host of tools and resources that will ensure that you are organized, logical and eventually successful with your presentations.  We've spent thousands of dollars on professional sound effects to ensure that you get the very best of original effects.  There are more in this package than you'll every use (3 CDs full to the brim). 

  To make sure that you have everything that you need, we threw in workshop DVDs where you can learn how to properly structure your ministry and your effort.  There are also DVDs of some of the actual plays being performed.

THE PLAYS

  The most attractive thing about our plays is that they are different from the storylines that you see recycled over and over again.  Each play is an individual work of art.  Each play comes with detailed directions to include visual diagrams explaining what you should do.  You are free to change words or take parts of the play out.  You can perform them as many times as you wish.  You can collect an offering or charge at the door without paying one extra cent as long as the plays are being done within the structure of the church.  Professional companies must contact us.

TAKE A LITTLE PEEK INSIDE

This is just a tiny sample. We have hours of plays, workshops, etc.


FYI - One of the video clips shows Stan Hood teaching blocking. To avoid misunderstandings, allow me to explain. "Blocking" is not some supernatural demon fighting exercise. In drama, "blocking" is the term used when teaching people how to move and where to stand on stage.
