🎭 “The Fruitful Follies: A Puppet Show of Spirit and Surprise”
Based on Galatians 5:22–23 (KJV)
Characters:
- Cawrin the Crow – A hilarious, wisecracking bird with a heart of gold and a knack for interrupting.
- Miss Maple – A gentle, poetic maple leaf puppet who teaches with grace and warmth.
- Benny Barrel – A cheerful wooden barrel puppet filled with symbolic fruits, each representing a Fruit of the Spirit.
🌟 Scene 1: “The Great Harvest Talent Show”
(Curtains open to a cozy autumn stage with hay bales, pumpkins, and a banner reading “The Fruit of the Spirit – Galatians 5:22–23 KJV”)
Miss Maple:
Welcome, dear friends, to our Harvest Talent Show!
Where fruits aren’t just tasty—they help your soul grow!
Tonight, we’ll share gifts that come from above,
Like joy, peace, and goodness, and Spirit-filled love.
Benny Barrel (rolling in):
I’ve got the goods! I’m packed with fruit!
Not apples and oranges—but spiritual loot!
Galatians 5:22–23 says it best:
Love, joy, peace… and all the rest!
Cawrin the Crow (flapping in dramatically):
CAW! I thought this was a pie-eating contest!
I brought my bib and my appetite!
(He pulls out a comically large fork and spoon.)
But okay, okay… I’ll behave.
I’m here to learn. Maybe. Probably. Sorta.
🎭 Scene 2: “The Dilemma of the Missing Fruit”
Miss Maple:
Wait… Benny, your fruit labels are missing!
Where’s “Faith”? Where’s “Meekness”?
This is serious!
Benny Barrel (panicking):
Oh no! Someone’s mixed up my fruit tags!
Now I can’t tell longsuffering from a lemon!
Cawrin (snickering):
Sounds like a job for Detective Cawrin!
I’ll sniff out the truth… or at least the snacks.
(Cawrin flaps around dramatically, inspecting the stage.)
Cawrin:
Aha! I found a clue under the hay bale—
A sticky note that says “Gentleness is hard!”
Hmm… someone’s struggling with their fruit.
🌿 Scene 3: “The Heart Behind the Fruit”
Miss Maple (softly):
Sometimes we lose sight of the Spirit’s gifts
When life gets heavy and our hearts need lifts.
But God’s Word reminds us—these fruits aren’t earned,
They grow when we trust Him, when lessons are learned.
Benny Barrel:
So it’s not about being perfect or proud,
But letting God’s Spirit shine through the crowd!
Cawrin (seriously, for once):
Even a crow like me can learn to be kind.
I flap, I squawk, but I’ve got peace in mind.
(Then he sneezes loudly into a leaf.)
CAW-CHOO! Sorry. That was “temperance” escaping.
🎉 Scene 4: “The Talent Show Finale”
(Each character presents a Fruit of the Spirit through a short skit or song.)
- Miss Maple sings a gentle lullaby about “Peace.”
- Benny Barrel juggles fruit labeled “Joy,” “Faith,” and “Goodness.”
- Cawrin performs a dramatic reading of Galatians 5:22–23… with interpretive dance.
Cawrin (bowing):
I may be a crow, but I’m flying high!
With God’s Spirit, even I can try.
Love, joy, peace—it’s not just a rhyme,
It’s how we live, one fruit at a time!
🌈 Final Scene: “The Fruitful Reward”
Miss Maple:
The winner of tonight’s show… is all of us!
Because the Spirit’s fruit is a heavenly plus.
Let’s keep growing, glowing, and showing God’s grace—
In every heart, in every place.
Benny Barrel:
And remember:
“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.” — Galatians 5:22–23 KJV
Cawrin (winking):
Now, who’s got pie? I’ve been longsuffering all night!
(Curtains close to laughter, applause, and a joyful harvest hymn.)
