Production Notes
Final regular mainstage production of Season 18 before the Theatre at Twilight series. Three actors portrayed approximately sixty-two characters in sketches covering both Testaments; audience interaction and a sing-along were advertised. The original page names songs “In the Beginning Blues,” “Begattin’,” and “That’s Armageddon,” and credits Marcellus Hankins with keyboard performance and composition or arrangement of all production music. CST connected the show to earlier successes THE COMPLET WRKS OF WLM SHKSPR (ABRIDGED) and THE COMPLETE HISTORY OF AMERICA (ABRIDGED). Original webpage retains one photo, bible01.jpg, captioned Marcellus Hankins and Terry Veal; “More photos coming soon” is not evidence of additional recovered photos.
