Synopsis
“Angels, The Ninth Order” takes place in Heaven in a location called The Way Station. The Way Station is a cloud with some tables, toys, rugs, and places to sit down. The story has eight characters; four men and four women, whose ages range from ten, (or a woman who looks ten), up to the mid-sixties with Wendell the mechanic. There are one male and one female African/American roles, all roles are leads. As people die on earth, they come to a Way Station to work for their wings and to educate themselves in the history of God and the wars between good and evil.
In the beginning, Angel Pledges are dropped into the Way Station through a crude chute or tube offscreen and unseen. They hit the floor of the surface of the cloud and then roll through the red curtains separated by white sheers and join the slowly growing crowd of Angels-to-be on the cloud and sky painted floor.
“Angels, The Ninth Order”, is about evil and focuses on the present evil of ISIS or ISIL and the conundrum of why the Lord isn’t taking a recognizable stand in a fight that is overpoweringly about good and evil. In the end this new group of recruit Angels causes a mutiny in Heaven and all at the same time, they bail out of the Way Station, making their way back down the chute to earth to rejoin with each other as a band of informed citizens who are disseminating to all earthly beings that this evil we face on earth today is truly evil and may be ruled through the direct intervention of Morningstar, the King of Hell and one-time-leader of the Angels in Heaven and the army of light.
This is a Dramedy with eight characters including one, full-fledged/winged Angel and the last of the Angels of The Tenth Order of Seraphim. John is joined by seven others, all waiting in the queue to be full winged Angels of the Ninth Order. There is one primary location.
