Sample of script:

Actors enter, marching around the room, ending front center as music ends

Brother John: Hallelujah! That is Righteous music. Righteous. Have you noticed, Sister Sarah, how God seems to favor the Right?

Sister Sarah: No, Brother John, I have not.

Brother John: I don’t suppose you would, you being Left-handed.

Sister Sarah: What do you mean by that?

Brother John: It’s as plain as day. When the Bible talks about sitting “at the right hand of God” it’s clearly a position of favor

Sister Sarah: I seem to recall the disciples asking Jesus if they could sit one at his right hand and one at his left. They are both positions of favor.

Brother John: Oh sure, but don’t you think James and John would have been arguing over which one of them goes on the right? I’d bet on John, he’s the dominant brother.

Sister Sarah: But John was clearly left-handed.

Brother John: What? How do you know that?
