Drama

Dramatising the Readings

The readings can be read by more than one person to make the dramatic meaning of the text clearer.

For instance, reading 1b from Amos could be read by four readers: narrator, the Lord, Amos, Amaziah; the second reading could be read antiphonally by two readers; and the gospel could be read by up to eight readers: narrator (the pastor), first person, second person, third person, Herod, John the Baptist, the daughter of Herodias, Herodias.
