Christmas of the
Animals

Christmas
50 minute cantata for choir, narrator and optional orchestra
This is a 50 minute
cantata for choir, narrator and animals. It's the story of
Christmas as seen by the animals. There's the donkey which
travelled to Bethlehem, the camels carrying the wise men,
the sheep in the fields, the cattle in the stable,
the innkeeper's dog and the mice under the straw
near the manger.
The songs are
tuneful and catchy. Each song is linked by a short speech from
your narrator. He or she introduces each animal who could then
appear. Loads of fun with wonderful costumes. Just think of those
giant tap-dancing mice!
The
story of Christmas is told in a fun, funny yet respectful way. You
see when Mary and Joseph had to move to the stable, the
innkeeper's dog just bounded along. He was a super friendly pooch
who just loved being with people. And those tiny mice hiding under
the straw. Well what a story they had to tell their children and
grandchildren. Here are some of the words of the finale with all
the animals, your choir and narrator joining in.
Make Christmas
A Part of You
You might be part of Christmas but is Christmas a part of you?
It's fun to
run with Santa, with friends and family too
But the
magic part of Christmas can make your heart brand new
So please be
part of Christmas, make Christmas a part of you.
There are band
parts if you have a live orchestra, the piano/vocal score is ideal
for conductor and/or accompanist and the stereo backing tape means
you have another option for your instrumental accompaniment.
Christmas of the Animals is very popular with young voices
although the show is ideal for a mix of adults and children. You
could even have a well-known person in your community as the
Narrator - a sporting, political or show biz star. As with all
FOX plays and musicals there is lots of free support material -
free lyric sheets, notes for the director and musical director.
