The Good King Wenceslas (a name everyone seems to have trouble pronouncing) sets out to give his gift to a peasant he has seen, but encounters unanticipated difficulties from some of his subjects who question the "political correctness" of his gift.
All characters are imagined from the words of "Good King Wenceslas."

Requires a minimum of four singers, but larger group may be used. A mixed "quartette" of trained singers is best. A larger group of untrained singers singing in unison is acceptable. The part of Scruffy should be played by someone younger (or at least smaller) than the other cast members.
