ABOUT THIS MULTI-PURPOSE PRODUCT:  Recommended for ages 5-11, ‘The Little Black Cloud’ is a short 10-20 minute fun-filled children’s musical, perfect for harvest but equally suited to other times of the year. It contains 7 songs (all sung by 6-11 year old children) along with all the backing music tracks – NO NEED FOR A PIANIST. The songs are linked by a lovely script which tells the story of The Little Black Cloud. The CD also includes a CD ROM section, easily accessible from any computer, which contains everything you need to help you stage a great performance... script, ideas, PowerPoints, songsheets, sheet music, OHP masters and more - everything you need all on one amazing CD! Or save time and money by easily DOWNLOADING IT ALL NOW!

AGE RANGE: Please note that this musical was originally written for and trialled successfully with year 2 and year 3 children (ages 6-8). This is reflected in the fact that all but one of the songs on the CD have been performed by a six year old child. However, it soon became apparent to us during its development, that this musical is simple and entertaining enough to be performed by the whole primary school. Indeed since its first publication seven years ago it has now been successfully performed in hundreds of schools and churches around the world by children of all ages. Therefore we are now advertising this product as being suitable for KS1 or KS2 (ages 5-11).

PARTS: Narrator/s, between four and ten main parts - four with optional solos. NB it's also possible to perform this musical with no actors, but with just a choir/group of children singing the songs / reading the narrators parts.

RUNNING TIME: Depending on how you choose to stage this performance, it can last for any length of time between 10 and 25 minutes. However this time span can easily be shortened or lengthened if required. Suggestions for how to do this are included in the detailed 'Production Notes' which you find contained within the CD / download.

REHEARSAL TIME: We believe it’s possible to teach this musical to a group of children in just one day. Please note however that this is NOT a guarantee. Please listen to the songs and view the script before deciding how much rehearsal time your pupils will require.

LICENCING:  FREE - NO LICENCE IS REQUIRED TO PERFORM THIS MUSICAL.
