script excerpt.
A Piece of Christmas includes:
1) 4 traditional Christmas carols and 4 original contemporary Christmas songs which include snaps, stomps, claps, motions, sign language or rhythm instruments, and there is always at least one song that your preschoolers can sing,
2) a 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 16 spoken parts (and the option to expand the parts to include more children or combine the parts for fewer children), prop list, and staging.
Purchase of this Christmas musical play grants you permission to make as many copies of the sheet music and script as needed for your performance plus permission to make and distribute copies of the vocal CD (a recording of Cathy singing the full version of each song) and a lyric sheet to your children (a great way for them to learn the music quickly!). 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 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 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!

"Thanks so much for your wonderful faith-filled musicals! This is our fourth year with your programs and each one is more delightful than the next. The children love the upbeat music and the speaking parts are always so much fun. When it was all over, the kids and parents all glowed with pride. Thanks for sharing your time and talent to bring the true meaning of Christmas to our families here at St. John's."
