Give Yourself the Gift of Planning Ahead

Choose your Christmas plays this summer

With the warm, lazy days of vacations and lighter schedules virtually here, it’s easy to dismiss thoughts of Christmas as being waaaay out there in the future. The reality for those of us who have directed Christmas plays, however, is that summer is precisely the time when we need to formulate our game plan for the Advent and Christmas seasons. Sketches for the Advent wreath? Check. Pageant for the children’s Sunday school department? Check. Christmas Eve carols and candlelight service? Check.

We offer such a diverse array of scripts that I’m confident you’ll find the script that is just right for your congregation and situation, whether it’s humor you’re looking for (A Cricket County Christmas), or something for the youth group (Operation Christ Child), or an easy-does-it program for the kids (An American Christmas), or a performance to address that pre-Christmas stress we all feel (A Simply Abundant Christmas).

To aid you in your decision-making, christianplaysandmusicals.com categorizes all our plays by type. From there, you may read individual play descriptions. Accessing a play’s production notes and cast list is just a click away. If you need further information to help you decide, you may purchase preview copies for $2.95 each. Have a wonderful summer, and don’t forget to choose your Christmas plays or programs early so you’ll have sufficient rehearsal time this fall!
