Dash the Donkey is a lively and engaging nativity play written by primary school teacher Sam Howes, tailored specifically for Key Stage 1 and 2 children. This vibrant production brings the traditional Christmas story to life through the eyes of Dash, an energetic but often misunderstood donkey from Nazareth. Known for his incredible speed, Dash dreams of being accepted by the other donkeys, who find his boastfulness and constant collisions off-putting. However, Dash’s journey takes a turn when he is chosen for an important mission—to carry Mary to Bethlehem.
Throughout the play, Dash learns valuable lessons about friendship, kindness, and reliability, transforming from an outsider into a hero, admired by all. Along the way, he encounters an array of delightful characters, including the wise men, angels, and fellow donkeys, each adding humour and warmth to the tale.
With catchy, easy-to-learn songs, such as "Dash the Donkey" and "A Party in Bethlehem," this nativity delivers festive cheer while teaching timeless lessons of compassion and selflessness. Children will enjoy singing, dancing, and acting out this heart-warming story as they follow Dash's adventure toward discovering what truly matters: love, kindness, and being there for others.

The Biggest Turkey in the Land offers nine fun Christmas songs based on common Christmas card themes, including The Robin, Snowy the Snowman, The Streets of Bethlehem and Santa’s rather disgruntled helpers who have got the Reindeer Blues. The songs form the basis of a thoroughly entertaining Christmas show and provide new material for the end-of-term concert. The level of difficulty of each song has been graded and there is linking dialogue from Henry – The Biggest Turkey in the Land – himself, to make sure that everything goes with a swing.
