Sally K. Albrecht has shaped choral music education for over thirty years as a composer, conductor, and clinician with a particular gift for choral movement. Her catalog includes more than 600 published works and 75 larger musicals, earning her consecutive ASCAP Special Music Awards since 1987.

In 2021, both the University of Miami Frost School of Music and Rollins College honored her with Distinguished Alumna Awards.

Why we love this

This 40-minute variety show arrives fully staged with character names, commercial breaks, and clear ensemble assignments, so your planning stays simple and your students stay engaged. The unison and 2-part voicings keep the focus on entertainment and movement rather than complex harmony, making it accessible for elementary singers while the novelty numbers give every voice confidence and personality.

What to expect

A vibrant, nostalgic TV special brought to life on stage. The rock-influenced feel gives it energy and contemporary appeal, while the variety show format keeps the momentum rolling and the audience smiling from opening number to final bows.

Who it's for

Elementary and middle school choirs looking for a complete, performance-ready musical that requires minimal additional staging work and engages the full ensemble. Teachers who want a secular Christmas program that doubles as a concert event and provides every student a recognizable role.

How to get the most out of it

  • Assign specific character groups (The Mistletones, Suzy and The Snowflakes, the Reindeer, the Elves) early in rehearsal so students own their parts and the TV show feel takes shape quickly.
  • Use the staging notes as rehearsal anchors; blocking and movement often teach rhythm and phrasing faster than counting alone.
  • Build the commercials into full run-throughs once you reach mid-rehearsal; these comedic moments need timing and confidence to land.
  • Layer the recorded accompaniment in progressive rehearsals, starting with a cappella sing-throughs to cement melody and text, then adding tracks to blend ensemble sound.

How to use it

Anchor your winter concert as a complete 40-minute standalone production, or use it as the centerpiece of a holiday assembly where different grade levels can rotate character roles across multiple performances. The built-in staging and commercial segments make it ideal for schools wanting to try a full musical without investing in extensive choreography or technical design.

Skills your students will build

  • Performing in ensemble contexts with assigned character groups
  • Singing unison and 2-part harmony with clear text delivery
  • Coordinating movement and blocking with vocal phrases
  • Building confidence in novelty and character-driven singing
  • Sustaining focus and energy across a full-length program structure
