The Twelve Days of Christmas is a sparkly adaptation of the famous Christmas song of the same name. It is a wonderful, exciting musical that really captures the true giving spirit of Christmas.

Intended for children in Key Stage 2 (7-11 year olds), there are parts for all the characters from the song and many many more, all with amazingly colourful costumes.

Children just love the fun, catchy songs, and the CD includes backing tracks and performance tracks as well as incidental music providing opportunities for adding dance and mime to the production.
