The Greatest Show on Earth
Christmas musical |
Derek Hobbs and Mike Kirkup £9.95
This smash hit Christmas musical has been performed year after year, and continues to be extremely popular as a school show. An exciting re-telling of the nativity story with a difference.
Duration: Two Acts of about 45 minutes each.
"A triumph...stunning production...the best school show I have seen for years."
This is how the Times Educational Supplement hailed the first performance of
The Greatest Show on Earth.
Since then, hundreds of successful performances have been given throughout the UK and internationally in schools and colleges, churches and cathedrals. Every single year, Rossleigh Music's postbag is full of appreciative comments:
"In the past five years we have produced 'Joseph', 'Oliver', 'Dazzle', 'Horse of Wood' and 'Grease' and I would certainly put The Greatest Show on Earth up among the best!"
"I would have to agree with the Times Educational Supplement reviewer who rated it as one of the best Christmas shows ever."
"The children took to the music more readily than anything else we've ever done."
The Greatest Show on Earth - a musical in which the members of a travelling circus put on their own inimitable version of the Nativity story - could be a big hit with your pupils and audiences alike this Christmas.
"Let's look back two thousand years
From Christmas as it now appears,
With hate and famine, crime rate soaring,
People fighting, countries warring,
Gone the love and gone the pity,
Gone from Royal David's City,
Let's do some back-tracking
To find out where we're lacking.
Come on...ROLL UP!"

Brookvale High School, Leicester
