"Very successful, it went down a treat! The script was very funny in a wonderfully 'over-the-top' way. The kids loved it. Highly recommended."

The Egyptian Nativity is a brilliant Christmas musical for ages 7-11. There are two different scripts that can be used to stage this production. Both scripts are included in your purchase: (1) The main play script contains dozens of parts with several meaty roles.

In addition to the catchy songs, backing tracks and funny scripts, you will also receive PowerPoints, staging advice and more. Everything you need to help you stage a triumphant nativity musical, which is sure to leave your audience in raptures.

"An excellent nativity play. The songs were outstanding!"

Both script versions are flexible and can be performed with any number of children
from 2 to 80+.

If you stick exactly to either script, this performance should take about 40 – 50 minutes. If this is too long or too short for you, suggestions are included as part of the material you receive, which should help you easily shorten or lengthen the production by 20-25 minutes either way

We believe that this musical needs a minimum of five days rehearsal time. Please note, this is not a guarantee. Please listen to the songs and view the material before deciding how much rehearsal time your pupils will require.

A REAL TREAT!

"Just to let you know that our performance of 'The Egyptian Nativity' went down a real treat. Parents were full of praise for the humour so perfectly combined with the true message of Christmas. For myself, it was a pleasure to direct this play with my class. The script was amusing, clearly laid out and highly original. I loved the fact that there was so much scope for improvisation. The children loved performing this play and enjoyed adding dance and actions to the songs. (line dancing for 'Mary is Going to have a Baby....(Yeehaa's and all) and Egyptian inspired dances composed during several energetic PE lessons). My favourite part of this play has to be the song 'Tomorrow'. This is one of the most moving songs that I have come across in a nativity play.....ever. Well done. I am looking forward to seeing and hearing your next composition because I hope to put on another of your plays next year."

REALLY FANTASTIC

"We did 'The Egyptian Nativity' last year and it was very successful. We did it with two Y4 classes, but the parents that came said the standard was more like a Y6/7 production. The script was very funny in a wonderfully 'over-the-top' way. The kids loved it. Highly recommended."

OUTSTANDING

"We have purchased your Christmas plays for the last two years and both have been fantastic. Last year we bought 'The Egyptian Nativity' and the year before 'C-H-R-I-S-T-M-A-S Spells Christmas for JUNIORS'. Both performances were excellent and the songs were outstanding. Thank you."
