Searching for the King

Following the success of the Dove Award-winning musical "A Baby Changes Everything," David Clydesdale brings "Searching for the King" -- a one-of-a-kind dramatic Christmas musical. A dynamic contemporary story parallels the biblical story delivering a message as powerful as the prophets and as relevant as today's headlines. Walter L. Black's exciting script juxtaposes one of the Magi (Mordecai) as he follows the Star of Bethlehem, with Benjamin, a soldier stationed in the Middle East 2,000 years later who is looking up at the same stars. They are both searching for the truth and they both find it at the foot of the manger. The musical requires only six actors (3 male and 3 female) and features an engaging scene for children's choir as well as a thrilling new mix of new songs and beloved carols. A detailed production manual and optional DVD will ensure that "Searching for the King" will deliver the heart of Christmas to your congregation and community. Songs include: Glory to the Newborn King with Hail to the King; Searching for a King; Morning Star with Emmanuel; It Was a Starry Night; This Is God; Beautiful One with Sing, Sing, Sing; What Will You Do?; Peace; Hail to the King! with Hark! The Herald Angels Sing and Joy to the World!
