Daniel in the Lion’s Den (5-7 minutes): A short play in one act by Taavi, Dixie & M. Ryan Taylor was written for our Spring program in 2022 that we performed at a couple of local care centers as part of a longer set of Spring-themed songs and sing-alongs. My wife and son spearheaded the playwriting this time, with me coming in on the second draft to format, edit and refine. We performed the play with a few puppets, which I’ll share more about in a future post, opening with the spiritual Didn’t My Lord Deliver Daniel and singing The Lord’s My Shepherd (Brother James’ Air) afterward to wrap up the story. The play is free to use in home and service situations (care centers, school, hospitals, etc.). We hope you enjoy it!
