DSS "edutainment"

ONE MAN SHOW: "Jerusalem Jones and the Mystery of the Dead Sea Scrolls."
[Ken Hanson] marches out a host of characters to join Jerusalem Jones in the adventure saga that tells the story of how the scrolls were "discovered out of the blue in the middle of the desert in 1947." With a lot of costume changes, he becomes a shepherd boy who throws a stone into a cave and stumbles into these mysterious documents; a shopkeeper in Bethlehem; a Greek Orthodox archbishop; and two prominent Israeli archaeologists.

Hanson even does a "brief Elvis impersonation" in "Jerusalem Jones."
Of course he does.
