​​In stillness, listen.  
Hear the flower speak.

Wordlessly it says:  I Am.
Set in 1843 London.

The classic tale of the old miser Scrooge, the ghosts who visit him on Christmas Eve, and the little crippled child who saves him.

Scrooge speaks to the Ghost of Christmas Present:
"When I think of Tiny Tim, I think of my own childhood.  Both of us know what it
is like to be excluded.  We don't share the same prob-lem, but each of us knows deep pain. When 
I was a child, no one ever hugged me, or read to me, or looked into my eyes and said "I love you.'  What a poor boy I was, living in daydreams by myself, isolated and lonely.  All children need love, just as much as they need food and water.  If someone had cared for me instead of leaving me alone most of the time, or screaming at me for little mistakes I made, perhaps I would be a better man today."
It’s an ordinary day.  Then God speaks to you.  What would you do?  

This really happened to Bruce Adams.  A must-see show for anyone who wonders about God.

Come visit Bruce in his ice cream shop.   Would God speak to an ice cream man?  Would God speak to YOU!

Bruce Adams has been hailed as the Blue-Collar Eckhart Tolle!
Can a bad witch turn good and learn love and respect?  Experience the adventures of old Witch Blinda® when she moves to Smeltzburg with her Purple Cat, Dog, Monkey and Yellow Bats.

The play is written in quadra-meter.

Blinda:                  
A perfect day! A perfect face!
I need my blue lipstick in
place. 
My shark tooth earrings are a sight. I need them clean and shining bright. 
I need face powder. . . Aqua-green!  I’ll buff my wart until it’s clean! 
I need my fancy purple dress. I’ll comb my hair . . .

Swattina:        
She looked a mess . . . I mean . . She looked her best!
 
Blinda:                       
I need my broom. 
I do indeed.         
I need, I need, I need, I need!!
True story of a suicidal man who was transformed by staring in silence at a flower.

"Buddha is said to have given a 'silent sermon' when he held up a flower and gazed at it. After a while, a monk called Mahakasyapa, began to smile. He is said to have been the only one who had understood the sermon. According to legend, that smile (that is to say, realiza-tion) was handed down by 28 successive masters and much later became the origin of Zen."  Eckhart Tolle from A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life's Purpose
