There are approximately 25 short speaking parts in this charming Easter musical, but a smaller cast could easily 'double-up', or extra lines be added for a larger one. The five songs, including 'Hey, here comes Jesus!' and 'I do not know him!' are quick to learn and great fun to sing. There's a beautiful Last Supper song 'Now and forever', and 'He's the King!' is a jubilant finale with actions and hand-jives, which children will want to keep singing when Easter's over. (We use this song all year round, substituting the one word 'Easter' with the name of our town, or, if it has too many syllables, with the word 'parish'. It makes a great assembly song.)
The songs come with lovely backing tracks and can be sung individually, or with bible-readings between (which are provided), or with the play.

The eight songs in Easter Praise! are catchy and very easy to learn, but the play is slightly more challenging than 'Here comes Jesus', (though easy for KS2). There are 16 speaking parts, which can be read rather than acted if you prefer, and two simple rhythmic chants by the 'crowds', which the chi... See More
