Santa’s Stuck in the 50’s
A Rock ‘n’ Roll Christmas Celebration for Unison and 2-Part Voices
By Sally K. Albrecht and Jay Althouse
Choral Director’s Score
If you think your attic is a mess, imagine what Santa’s must look like! After a cleaning spree, the whole gang at the North Pole is delighted to find quite a number of boxes left over from the fabulous 50’s! As the reindeer and elves dig in, they find great stuff, including Frisbees, Hula Hoops, and other things still popular today! A box of 45 RPM records is cause for celebration as the whole gang gets ready to « Rock Around the Shop Tonight! » It becomes clear that most of the newly discovered « leftovers » are still hot gift items, so a special news bulletin is announced from WXMAS News, where Santa tells children to stop sending Christmas lists. Instead, he wants letters from them explaining how they’ve been good this year! A special « letter writing » scene follows, as children sing « Santa, Be Good to Me. » In the finale, Santa gets ready to deliver all the great 50’s toys and games while « Rockin’ Down the Chimney! » Don’t miss this rockin’ and rollin’ Christmas musical that will take your students and audience back to those fabulous 50’s! Recommended for grades three and up. Approximately 30 minutes.
