Shepherd, Stars, And A Savior

Here comes Christmas...with moonlight, starry skies, shepherds and sheep. Aaron and his fellow shepherds have lost their way to Bethlehem because they stopped to help a stranger in need. Now, it's up to Connie Stelation and her squad of shining stars to help him and the others find their way to witness the miracle at the manger. Five songs and a cast of irrepressible shepherds, sheep and stars tell the miraculous story of the coming of the Savior with a little help from their special prop box. This easily-prepared 15-minute musical is perfect for younger children's choirs and can be performed with as few as eight children or many more. The reproducible Director's Manual offers permission to photocopy singer's sheets and dialog, making Shepherds, Stars and a Savior a budget-stretching, flexible answer for a creative children's Christmas musical! Available: Director's Manual, Performance/Accompaniment CD, Preview Cassette (full performance only) and RehearsalTrax Pak (12 preview cassettes for individual rehearsal). Performance Time: 15 minutes. For Grades K-4.
