Product Description

Follow That Star is a short, entertaining musical nativity full of good natured humour and memorable songs.

Following this bright star toward Bethlehem, we travel with the Shepherds, the three Kings and an odd assortment of entertaining Animals toward a very humble stable. Here we meet the Innkeepers, who together with the travellers, realise that a very special and significant moment is about to happen.

Follow That Star gleefully emphasizes the true meaning of Christmas and for children and adults alike this story will both warm the hearts and entertain. The music ranges from some beautiful traditional melodic carols to Salsa and Calypso so let’s all join in and 'follow that star' as this traditional musical joyfully asks us to.

A BRAND NEW product called "Sing it!" is available for this musical. This CD-ROM can teach the songs to the children without any teacher input. Children can use it at school or at home (think of the time it will save you!). Most schools use it in class on an interactive white board or in the school hall on the overhead projector to allow full cast practice. This latest version allows Lyrics on or off, Vocals on or off and the facility to practise one line at a time - all features are accessible instantly with one click. Children LOVE learning this way and the product is foolproof.

Also available is a CD-ROM of Backdrops, which contains instant scenery with digital backdrops supplied in both a PowerPoint presentation and as individual JPG files. No more scenery painting! These images may be projected onto a screen or wall at the back of your stage or hand them to a local printer to print onto large boards or sheets in order to create your stage backdrops. They're also useful to print off for cast and stage crew to familiarise themselves with the sets and scene changes. The CD-ROM of Backdrops contains a different backdrop for every scene change.

Another new product is AudioScript, an "Audio Book" style read-through of the entire show performed by professional voice actors. The AudioScript is supplied on a CD and teaches each child their lines, when to perform them and most importantly, HOW to perform them. The copy and repeat method is simply the best and quickest way to learn. You can listen to a sample of the AudioScript product in the "Contents/Songlist" section below.
