In Get in Line for Christmas, you get to make a stop at the Bethlehem Corner Market! You'll find the wise men standing in line to mail their gifts to Jesus & pick up some chocolate stars, the angels checking out the latest newspaper headlines regarding an upcoming concert on a Bethlehem hillside, and shepherds in need of gift wrap for Jesus' gift. As you gather with them in Bethlehem to greet Jesus, the newborn savior, you'll celebrate no line at the manger! Click here to read a script excerpt.
Get in Line for Christmas includes: 1) 9 Christmas songs for children and contemporary arrangements of 4 traditional Christmas carols with extra claps & snaps, sign language, & motion options, and at least one song for your preschoolers to sing, 2) piano score with guitar chords, 3) a voal CD (a recording of Cathy singing the full version of each song), 4) a script with 15 spoken parts and 15+ 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 40-minute version ($39 plus shipping, performance time: 40 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 program, 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 children's 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!

Dawna W., First Christian Church
"We just performed 'Get in Line for Christmas' and it was a big hit. Some grandparents traveled 150 miles to watch their grandchildren and said it was well worth the drive in below zero temps because it was the best they have ever seen. The students absolutely love what you write!"

set ideas! Thanks!"
