Books with title Pb Takes a Holiday

Drama / Casting: 7m, 6f / Scenery: Interior Produced with great success on Broadway, this striking drama has established itself among the important plays of our time. It is based on the poetic conception of death suspending all activities for three days during which he falls in love with a beautiful girl and through her realizes why mortals fear him. The mood of the play is established with remarkable skill and while it is charged with exciting moments, it is a perfect background for a love story that is as simple as it is appealing. The character who symbolizes Death is a very human person, with no conventional claptrap dragged in for mere effect. Here is a play that stimulates discussion and presents a novel and optimistic philosophy of the problems of love and death. This is one of the most popular and successful plays for amateurs.

This is a funny and imaginative Children's story about the Sun wishing to take a holiday after trillions of years dedicated to earth and the surrounding solar system. The Sun's name is Rayer. "I have a name and it's Rayer. SUN is only a title. It is what I do - - it's my job, not my name." Rayer put the earth on notice. Extremely tired, Rayer wants a much deserved Holiday!
