Herod • Alfred Taylor
- Herod: Now take your ease and imagine yourself on a moonlit terrace in the palace of bad King Herod, on a balmy summer's night, some 20 years or so after the birth of Jesus Christ. And what our production lacks in stagecraft, we hope to make up for in enthusiasm. And any shortcomings in design I know will be compensated for by your fertile imagination.
- Herod: What is this blood doing here? And this corpse? What is this corpse doing here? Do you think I'm like the King of Egypt, who never holds a banquet without showing a corpse to his guests?
