“Easy to learn. Went without a hitch. Great positive feedback. Many said it was the best they'd seen!"

Joining Joseph The Joiner’s Family’ is a fabulously funny nativity musical, with several songs having been inspired by classical pieces such as ‘The Peer Gynt Suite’ and ‘The William Tell Overture’.

There are two different scripts that can be used to stage this production. Both scripts are included in your purchase: (1) The ‘main script’ is intended for older children and contains dozens of narrators’ parts, with spoken lines for every nativity character. (2) The ‘simple script’ is a shortened version of the ‘main script’, with less lines for everyone.

In addition to the catchy songs, backing tracks and humorous scripts, you will also receive PowerPoints, staging advice and more. Everything you need to help you stage a brilliant Christmas musical, which is sure to bring the house down.

"Really good! The kids enjoyed it, the parents loved it - it was a big, big hit!"

Numbers are very flexible and can be performed with any amount of children
from 10 to 100+.

This performance should take about 20 -35 minutes depending on which script
you use. 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 10-15 minutes either way.

We believe that this musical needs a minimum of two 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 BRILLIANT SHOW

"I teach in an inner city school in Birmingham and we were bored doing the same Christmas Nativity year in year out with the same songs. We bought Joining Joseph the Joiners Family and I am so glad we did. The music is fantastic, and the whole school (193 pupils) took part. The kids loved the funky tunes and enjoyed every second of rehearsals. They still talk about it now and we will definitely be using this site next Christmas."
