這出英语音乐剧讲述Joseph和Mary的爱情故事，及耶苏的降世。剧中的音乐及歌曲非常动听、感人。

宗教意识不强烈，带著观赏音乐剧及支持慈善的心态前来更为正确及恰当。

门票收入扣除制作费后，收益将捐给慈善机构，即St Barnabas Home for Children 及 The Tondo Community Project。

演员和工作人员都是无酬劳的，但不失其歌声演译水准及对制作的认真。

Two From Galilee 是一部十分接近百老汇形式的歌剧。它有别于一般我们所看的本地音乐剧（一大团人都以相同音域演唱歌曲），而是运用S.A.T.B. 混声四部合唱(harmony singing)演唱剧中的合唱曲。以下是一些有关此音乐剧的背景资料：

ABOUT THE SHOW

The Story
Two From Galilee is, at first glance, the story of young couple. Very much in love, they are faced with family conflict, a hostile world and an awesome responsibility. They fight for their one true love and to fulfill their dreams. But trust is shaken and love questioned. Issues arise about a family's shame and a husband's doubt. But if that was everything, the story
would be over halfway through Act I

An Inspiring Story
But that is not the whole story. Although love, tradition and family problems all play a part, it's not just about finding true love, but about life's purpose and calling.

The Book
Marjorie Holmes searched over six years to find a publisher for her novel Two From Galilee. When it was finally published by Fleming H. Revell, the book soared to the New York Times best seller list and was among the top 10 best sellers in 1972. Subsequent publication rights were snapped up by Hodder and Stoughton, London; Bantam Books, New York & Toronto; Carmel, New York; G.K. Hall, Boston; and The Macmillan Reference Library.

The Musical
Based on the novel of the same title, Robert Sterling, composer, and Karla Worley, lyricist, created a well-loved family musical with Broadway style music backed by rich orchestration. The duo successfully captured the heart and spirit of the story through their rich and imaginative scoring and going through a variety of emotions in the storyline.

Broadway Status
The Sterling and Worley musical version of Two From Galilee has been staged around the world by many amateur and professional theatre groups. The musical achieved Broadway status in 2006 when it played at the The Peter Jay Sharp Theatre at Symphony Space on Broadway, New York.

分享一些观众的观后感：

It was a pleasure to have finally met up with you in person.  I thoroughly enjoyed the show and I thought it was very good.  The main singers sang very well and the diction was clear, which made it easy to understand and follow the songs.  My colleague [non-Christian] told me that he was moved to tears during the scene where Joseph & Mary had no place to stay after travelling for days & Mary had to give birth to Jesus in the stable.  The props were simple yet effective.  You should all give yourselves a pat on the back for a well done production.

Thank you once again for the opportunity to see the show.

I just received the feedbacks from the faculty members who went for the live musical drama. On the whole, it was a great performance and they enjoyed it. They found that the singing, acting and choreography were professionally and well done. Another faculty member mentioned that she would be recommending it via her blog. As for me, it was an eye opener as I have not been to such a performance.

May the Lord in His goodness and grace sustain you and your team throughout all these performances. The Lord be with you and remain with you and your team.
