39 speaking parts, approximtely 15 non-speaking parts plus dance troupe and choir - these can be edited to suit your school. Lasts approximately 45 minutes. Ideal for KS2. Option for inserting your own song choices - I began with some well loved Chistmas carols and then used more traditions Christmas hymns/carols throughout the play script. This really warmed the hearts of our audiences and even brought a tear to some eyes! Quite a traditional play script as written for a C of E primary, but without being too dry. Opportunity to personalise some parts to your school too. Very easy to follow. Everyone can get involved and have a great time!
