any ideas ot tips.....
God bless!
Have each one tell his own story in a poetic kind of a way, and inbetween every saint you could let a choir sing songs about the Nayrouz feast.
We had some sort of play before at our church, and it was really cute lol.
You way want to listen to songs on this album, it's all about the Nairouz:

Especially this song "Fen Nayrouz" is really nice!
If you need any help making the script, you can give me a private message, but I must warn I am no playwright.
At the moment I am looking for plays based on martyrs?
This obviously would have occurred to you, but I don't see any other option than to get a story form the synaxarium and make it a play...?

no kiddin hahahha.....thats how i normalli do it but it requires creativity to turn a story inro a play
I don't know if this is much interest to you, but here is a site with many dramas. Problem is:
a) you don't know what is in it until you become a member
b) to become a member you have to pay

cya on the night
Narrator: Martyrs have died for the sake of Christ since the beginning of the church. Starting by St. Stephen, and still are many. When will they end? When will the pagans have enough of the church's blood? It is never. Our Church is strong, and Mighty! "The gates of hell will not prevail over it!" It is through the martyrs blood that the church is strong. By it, we showed the world the beauty of Christ, and our love for him.
(Johny and Matt are talking on the phone)
Johny: Hey matt are you going to the Vespers for the Feast of Nayrouz at church?
Matt: I'm not going to a Fayrouz concert tonight, especially when it's in a church.
Johny: Fayrouz? What? I said Nayrouz, and it's not a concert.
Matt: Then what is it?
Johny: It's vespers to prepare us tomorrow for the Feast of the martyrs of the church.
Matt: Well i'm not going. Nayrouz Shmayrouz. I got better things to do.
Johny: Like what?
Matt: Like watch South Park, I've never missed a single episode since it started on TV.
Johny: (sighs) South Park isn't more important than celebrating the martyrs, who by their blood kept the church alive.
Matt: Ya whatever
Johny: why don't you talk to abouna and see what he tells you?
Matt: Who? That guy who walks around swinging a censer with a charcoal in it, then spraying girl's perfume so he nearly chokes us?
Johny: Umm, ya, that guy
Matt: Forget it!
Johny: ok suit youself...
Matt: Well South Park started, so i'll let you go.
Johny: ok and i'm going to start getting ready for tonight. Bye
Matt: Bye
(Johny Driving to church)
Johny: Lord, please help Matt. He really needs you. Nobody can be as compassionate as you. We all need you. You only provide us with the nourishment we need to live with. You Said, "Knock and it will be opened to you, Seek and ye shall find, Ask and it will be given unto you." I ask you Oh lord to help Matt through the prayers and intercessions of All your Saints, Amen.
(In the church in front of the relics of the Martyrs)
Johny: Please Oh lord, Through the blessings of these holy relics, Help Matt, so that he may see the true light. Please forgive him, and have mercy on my weak and sinful soul.
(Abouna is putting spices on the relics of the saints) (Ek-Ezmarout is said here)
After the Prayer Of Vespers
Johny: Abouna, please pray for me and Matt. He really needs help. He's so lost and away from God.
Abouna: May the Prayers of the holy Martyrs be with him
(Matt finishes watching South Park and goes to bed)
Unknown Ghostly voice: Matt, Matt, Matt
Matt: wh, wh, w, who's th th t there?
Unknown Ghostly Voice: I am St. Demiana
Matt: Saint who?
Unknown Ghostly Voice: Demiana the Servant of Christ
Matt: Are you a character on South Park?
Unknown Ghostly Voice: I see that the devil has really gotten to your mind by occupying your head with nonsense.
Matt: Devils, in my Head? Oh for the Love of God please take them out!
Unknown Ghostly Voice: Ok, but first give me your hand and I will show you things.
(Matt takes St. Demiana's Hand and gets out of his bedroom. Smoke appears which will be used as a Tv to see the life of Saint Demiana)
St. Demiana: (pointing to the Tv) Do you see that girl?
Matt: yes
St. Demiana: that was me
Matt: Cool
St. Demiana: I was a nun in this monastery, until the guards came and took me away with the fifty virgins here.
Matt: where did they take you?
St. Demiana: To be Tortured. This is me being tortured. They cut my skin, hammered my head, cut my body to pieces, and in the end cut my head off. Then I recieved the crown of martyrdom. (She shows him a really nice crown)
Matt: Now I understand what martyrs really are, and how important they are.
(Matt goes back to Sleep and Wakes up to go to the liturgy) (Johny is quite surprised to see him)
Johny: Is that you Matt?
Matt: Yea it's me
Johny: What made you change your mind?
(Matt sits down with Johny and Abouna and tells them what hapened)
The End
