🎭 A Simple Nativity – Script Version 2 with Flexible Song Options

No aliens, sprouts, or gimmicks – just a joyful, traditional Nativity everyone will love.

This charming, back-to-basics Nativity script is perfect for a class or whole school Christmas performance. With 24 narrator parts and the option to include either 7 or 9 songs from our selection of Nativity songs (or your own), it’s a musical treat that’s easy to stage and enjoyable for children, teachers, and families alike.

📝 Flexible, Easy-to-Use Script

The script keeps things simple and inclusive, with narration carrying the story and optional non-speaking roles for children to act out scenes or form a tableau. You have full flexibility – make it as minimal or theatrical as you like.

There are no performance fees, and the combined cost of the script and songs is likely far less than many other providers.
