As Christmas approaches and the decorations begin to go up, one of the best ways to spread the Christmas spirit is by putting up a Christmas play that tells the story of the nativity of Jesus. Christmas is celebrated by people around the world, but there are a lot of people who do not know the story behind the celebration. The story of Jesus's birth is a beautiful tale of hope, love and divine providence, and enacting it makes the festival meaningful for everyone.
Below is a script for a short Christmas skit. This script presents the main events of the nativity story. The conclusion in particular, explains the relevance of the Christmas message for us today. The script is written for an audience who may be unfamiliar with the story of Christmas, and so keeps things simple. While this skit itself takes just around 5 minutes (or less!), the length and sophistication of the entire performance can be adjusted by including carols, props, lighting and other stage settings. This play is suitable to perform in a school, office, community gathering, or a variety of other contexts.
The Christmas Story - A Light for the World
Following are some carols that can be sung or played before or after the skit, or at appropriate moments during the skit:
- Silent night
- Mary's boy child
- Joy to the world
- Hark, the herald angels sing
- O come all ye faithful
- Away in a manger
- O holy night
- What child is this
- Shepherds:
- Angels we have heard on high
- The first noel
- Wise men:
- We three kings
