Cohen, the Beggar Boy
Contributed by Jude Dowell
I play an illegitimate beggar boy named Cohen. I am a rude and obnoxious boy. I make everyone mad. No one cares for me and I don’t care for them either.
Well, today I worked on a song called, “She’s Crazy.” It was a lot of fun. I had to dance and sing of course. The dancing was kind of hard because I have never danced before, but soon I will get the moves down. I also worked on Act 2, scenes 8 and 9. In scene 8, I was at the end of the scene and I was trying to talk to Mary about Yeshua, but she wouldn’t listen, so then I had to sing to her. After that I went to go find Yeshua. In scene 9, I did – wait! What I did next I can’t tell you! You’ll just have to watch the play! Ha ha!
Well, after the scenes, I helped out by cutting out fish and counting 25 flyers. I did that for a while, then I put rubber bands on the flyers. After that, I was looking at some of the other fish. Some were big and some were small. I thought, “Since I get fish in the play, I would want the big ones, not the small ones since I need the food because I am a beggar.”
Well, that’s all that happened with me at the rehearsal. To find out more about the play you’ll have come and see it. You’ll be glad you did.
