A Band of Shepherds
Christmas

A “Bibli-cool” Kid’s Christmas Musical
Created by Kathie Hill

Originally released as a youth musical, we’ve re-voiced A Band of Shepherds in unision/2 part to rock the nativity story for kids! When taxpayers at the Bethlehem census get rowdy, “The Dead Shepherds” are brought in to entertain them. As Christmas Eve progresses these hopeless head-bangers audition Joyce, a new singer who tells of the promised Messiah. They are then visited by rapping angels, meet the Christ Child and are transformed musically and spiritually to share the news with others.

Set: Divided stage w/outdoor census, shepherd’s field & manger
Costumes: street clothes w/“Bibli-cool” accessories
