Reality TV fans will be totally amused and entertained as each of Santa's eight reindeer audition for a panel of important judges including Mrs. Claus, Santa himself, and (special guest at the North Pole) Steven/Susan Cruelle -- played by one of your students, a local celebrity, or a school administrator. Host, Nicky Snowcrest keeps the show rolling along, and the "Star Singers" back up each of the featured performers as they sing and dance their way toward the ultimate title of North Pole Star. For a truly surprise ending, allow your audience to cast votes during the song "We All are Winners Here," or plan and prepare a winner in advance! Either way, it's just so much fun poking fun at a pop culture phenomenon. * Recommended for grades 3 and up. * Performance time: approximately 40 minutes. * Staging Notes included.
