A dramatization of the traditional poem “'Twas the Night Before Christmas,” in which the mouse not only stirs, but plays an important part in this re-enactment of the American classic. (Did you know that our picture of Santa Claus's appearance – a fat, jolly, bewhiskered elf – originated in this poem?) The story is carried forward without dialogue – using simple pantomime and the delightful singing. Grade Level: 1-4. Perf. Time: Approx. 10 minutes.
