Doing this play was a wonderful experience for my students and
me! They thoroughly enjoyed every minute of the work. Our
school does not do regular Christmas programs, so this was a treat
for our student body. I'm sure this will begin a tradition,
though. We got so many wonderful comments. My class
got the most benefit out of it, however. I had no idea they would
work so hard. They have not been so excited about anything
this whole year. I assigned parts to some students with
special education needs, and they came through like champions!
Thank you so much for the play and ideas. |

A super play, which went down a storm. The children
loved rehearsing and performing, while their parents thoroughly
enjoyed the show and their comments afterwards positively glowed!. |

The students at this school don't have many
opportunities to participate in these kinds of productions. It was
so much fun to do this play with them. The parts were easy for them
to learn and they really added their own personalities to the
parts. We loved doing it and the audience of parents and community
loved seeing and hearing it. I hope that we can use Santascenes
again next Christmas. |

This play was the 4th Santascenes play that we have
used for our annual Christmas Program. The students and staff at our
school enjoy your plays so much. We especially enjoy getting
the costumes and props together. Our students are emotionally
behavioral disturbed, and it is so rewarding to see them memorize
their parts and have smiles on their faces while they perform. They
actually start asking about the play at the beginning of the school
year. We are ready for this year's play!!!

When I was
first asked to put on a play I wasn't sure how I was going to do it
. It just so happened that my mother, also involved with the play,
found your website. It was a blessing. We thought all the plays
sounded cute so we picked one. The play was so easy to follow and
the your suggestions made it even easier to work with. We had so
much fun. Students came up to me later to ask if we were going to
put on another play because they were interested in trying
out. All the parents were also very pleased with the play. Thank you
so much for coming up with an easy approach to putting on plays
especially for the not so talented teachers trying to put them on.

Just want you to know that our production of "The
Reindeer Rebellion" was a smashing hit! I used my eighth graders
and created a whole unit on theatre production assigning onstage and
backstage roles to each student. These kids really stepped up
and got involved. I've heard lots of comments about how this was
our best Christmas program ever! That does so much for a
teacher's motivation and for the school music program! Thanks
for sharing your gifts with others! |

The
play was a hit with my drama students. They thought the play was so
funny and you could tell they enjoyed practicing on it! They were so
excited for the performances.
Parents,
students and faculty who watched the performance loved the show,
especially when we rolled a brand new Harley Davidson on the stage for
Santa's new ride! It was a great experience for me to have a play
that was age appropriate for my students and my target audience
readily available! I look forward to working with you in the future!

Last night, we had our production at our school of
"Shimmering Star Search" and it was wonderful. We had a group of
teachers that got up to perform "All I Want For Christmas Is You"
and everytime they said "You" they had a student walk across the
stage holding a report card with straight A's, get it? This play
was so much fun and my principal absolutely loved it. This is
the first time she has really loved a play of mine. |

It was a
great play - easily adaptable to include the number of children who
wanted to participate; the sets were easy to prepare and the children
and parents really enjoyed it! It was our first play and it went so
well we plan to make it a Christmas tradition!

My students performed REINDEER REBELLION... LA
Rebeldia de los RENOS (in Spanish) Was a great hit considering
the time we had to prepare... we ended up making the reindeer antlers
out of mesquite branches!.. it was so fun.. and our two boys had fun
rapping.... in the middle scene! The play was great--we had fun..
and oh, so did the kids.. hahaha (just kidding it was great) ... the
parents couldn't say enough!

The play was wonderful. Our students had a
wonderful time practicing and performing. It was great! We
added the music you suggested and created a chorus, as well as using
our band between certain scenes. We did add a few things. For
example, we added a dance by using the song Respect. Our reindeer did
it and it was so cute!

The play was
wonderful. The students enjoyed working on it. Many of the staff
members felt
that it was one of the most elaborate presentations they had seen. We
appreciate the fact that
you allowed us to present your play.
Thank You!!! |

My fourth grade class performed the play for the
whole school K-5. Everyone enjoyed it! It was unique and
different from the traditional plays we have put on in the past. The
students had a great time! I am looking forward to using one of the
other plays next year. Thanks for providing them at such a reasonable
price.

Susan, this play was wonderful! Our cast enjoyed
it so much and the school loved it! We used
a real Harley Motorcycle for Santa to ride
in on. A fourth grade teacher owns one and he drove Santa in! The
song "Leader of the Pack" was playing! It was the hit of the play!

I have used two of your plays: Leader of the Pack
and The Reindeer Rebellion. Your plays are great! The kids
really enjoyed them. I really appreciated the flexibility they offer.
I work at a Psycho educational facility and everyone was VERY impressed
with the students' performances for the past two years. Your plays
offered my students a chance to SHINE, and I am very thankful to you
for that. |

I used the
play for church performance, didn't have to really make any changes.
The audience received it well and the cast enjoyed performing their
parts. It worked out really well, thanks for helping me to introduce
something different to my church family.
