Secret Santa: The Musical – A Choir Room Christmas by Andy Beck and Brian Fisher
There are only three rehearsals until the holiday concert when dedicated choir director Miss Myers hatches a plan to boost the Christmas cheer of her singers – a secret Santa gift exchange! With a little help from their supportive school principal, six featured students (plus as many extras as your risers can accommodate) soon find themselves fully invested in the spirit of the season, just in time for their performance. Straightforward production notes at the beginning of the delightful script, and complete choreography notes for the seven upbeat original songs lead the way to a festive and heartwarming 30-minute holiday show. Now that’s a gift worth sharing! Recommended for Grade 3 and up.
