| The Christmas Checklist | ||||
|
||||
| In The Christmas Checklist,
everyone makes a checklist. Mary and Joseph use sticky
notes to keep track of what to pack for their trip to
Bethlehem, angels double-check the things they need for
an upcoming concert, shepherds use a clipboard to lead a
hillside roll call, and the wisemen collect star-gazing
equipment that will lead them all to the newborn savior. Click
here to read a script excerpt. The Christmas Checklist includes: 1) ONLY contemporary arrangements of 8 familiar Christmas carols with added snaps, actions, sign language and rhythm instruments, 2) piano score with guitar chords, 3) a vocal CD (a recording of Cathy singing the full version of each song), 4) a script that includes Christmas text from Luke 2 with 18+ spoken parts and 10+ non-spoken parts (and the option to expand the parts to include more children or combine the parts for fewer children), prop list, and staging. |

| You have your choice of a full-length
35-minute version ($39 plus
shipping,
performance time: 35 minutes) or a short 20-minute version ($29 plus
shipping, similar script but
fewer/shorter songs - performance time: 20 minutes). To preview this Christmas musical play, a script and vocal CD (a recording of Cathy singing the full version of each song) are available for $7 plus shipping. If you'd like to use the 10-12 minute script and insert your own children's songs, purchase of performance rights for the script is $15 (script can be sent via e-mail to save shipping charges). If you already have a script written and would like to use some of the Christmas songs from this musical, sheet music is available for $3.00 per song plus shipping. Sheet music includes piano score, guitar chords and motions. No CD is included when you purchase sheet music for individual songs. A keyboard CD (no vocals) is also available for $20 plus shipping, for those times when your piano player isn't available or when you need to free up your hands to teach actions or sign language. This CD may also be used for your performance - it's like hiring a piano player who plays the music the same way every time! All orders must be prepaid. There are 3 ways to order: 1) Mail Cathy's printable order form with a check to: Cathy's Music, 1923 Noble Road, Arden Hills, MN 55112. $20 fee for returned checks. 2) Use your PayPal account.
