Here we are in the “sleepy” little village of Bethlehem. But in this tiny town something huge and miraculous is about to happen…the birth of the Messiah! Right in the midst of all the action is an irresistibly intrepid and indefatigable group of orphans who

to Bethlehem? Jill & Michael Gallina 15 Minutes

The animals in the Bethlehem stable have been informed of the coming Messiah, but they aren’t quite sure who it will be. The lamb naturally things it’s a lamb; the dove thinks it’s a dove who will bring peace… and the other animals have their own

powerful message. Meet Clarence, the concerned angel, Gabriel, the “cool” trumpet-playing angel, Oscar, the grouchy shepherd, Missy, the exuberant shepherd-in-training and more as they find their way to the manger…while learning that with the birth of Jesus, everyone is truly outstanding!

Starry Night Noisy Night Ruth Elaine Schram 20 Minutes

Lee & Susan Dengler Grades K-6 The infamous census of the ages has made Bethlehem a busy and crowded spot, and there are some guests at a local inn who aren’t very happy. F.W. Woolworth (rich wool salesman), Rock Starling (hip star singer) – among others – have made it clear they want no part of the “lower class” staying at the inn (or otherwise). By

Grades K-6 The animals of the stable remind us of the distractions that prevent us from experiencing the true meaning of Christmas. The Cows, annoyed by the bright starlight; the Sheep, spending so much time gazing outside their

windows, almost missing the miraculous scene unfolding before them; the Chickens, too busy pecking out IM’s to other chickens to receive the message of Christ’s birth. The musical ends quietly, reverently, and worshipful, turning away from life’s distractions to celebrate God’s great gift of love. Simple staging, minimal dialog, and songs that incorporate familiar Christmas tunes. Book/CD/Repro 21560100 $49.95
