"I am thrilled to direct this Christmas Musical Play for our school this Holiday season. The play script is absolutely adorable and extremely creative. I love the idea of all the performers on stage at all time, and the "playing area." I love that all the kids can be involved, and the audience as well. Thank you for such an entertaining, creative Christmas play at such an affordable price!"

"We have just performed 'Twas the Night Before Christmas and everyone said it was our best show yet. It was certainly the biggest cast I have had and it was a great success."
Karen Dixon, Hunua Elementary School, Papakura, New Zealand
Funny witty lyrics are set to easy, familiar Christmas Carol tunes, taking the emphasis off memorizing unknown songs and putting it on imagination and creative performance. Packed with laughs and audience participation, ends with a lump in your throat and everyone reciting Clement Moore's famous poem! A perfect centerpiece for your school's Christmas holiday event.
