Bethlehem's Big Night 3 5 2 2

No Music I ordered this book to preform this christmas play in our church and later discovered that you are not allowed to preform this play without purchasing a $60.00 production packet. I was very disappointed that this information was not presented upon ordering the book. When I looked up the music on their website it states that the book is for reading pusposes only. We chose to go with a different christamas play October 17, 2010

I used this play last year for children (ages preschool to 8th grade) it was a fun play. Has a lot of funny parts that the kids and congregation enjoyed. I added my own music. August 30, 2010
