With the courage of a Queen she said, &#8220;I will go afore the King and if I perish, I will perish.\u201d The words of old Mordecai kept ringing in her ears. &#8220;Who knoweth whether thou art come to the kingdom for such a time as this.\u201d Esther knew that she must approach the King as always with confidence and grace. She stood, for a time, in the outer court of the King&#8217;s house. She moved from column to column, slowly, dreading each step she must take. She eased into the inner court with all the courage she could muster.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><strong>PLAY DETAILS<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>1 woman<\/li>\n<li>biblical dress, if desired<\/li>\n<li>few small props, no setting<\/li>\n<li>About 40 minutes<\/li>\n<li><strong>ORDER #2090<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Available early to mid-March 2020!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>COMMENTS<\/h2>\n<p>\u201c<em>When the spirit touched you with the desire to further serve beyond what had been asked, you responded in a most beautiful way\u2013through researching, writing and dramatizing the lives of righteousness from the past.
