Audiences, both young and old alike, will delight in this special musical presentation of Clement Clarke Moore's Christmas poem The Night Before Christmas. It is now a tradition in many American homes to read the poem, written in 1822, every Christmas Eve. Narrated by one to five people, this work presents the perfect opportunity to feature students, faculty, support staff, or school administrators. Dress for narrators may include choir robes along with black folders or simply appropriate outfits complimented with Santa hats. Between readings, the ensemble performs seasonal favorites and provides the audience with a few humorous suggestions.
