Bring the stars to your school stage with this delightful 30-minute musical by Jo Acharya and Sam Gallagher. Perfect for children aged 5-8, this whimsical sci-fi adventure follows Max, an alien visitor and new student who is trying his very best to act like a "normal" Earth boy. However, between his "Martian" reading skills and his habit of putting ice cream on pizza, his classmates quickly realise that there is something truly out-of-this-world about their new friend. When a playground emergency leaves the group in a bind, Max must decide if he is brave enough to reveal his true identity to save the day.
This production is a teacher’s dream, featuring flexible casting that includes everything from confident speaking roles to "living scenery" walk-on parts like Stars and Trees. The show is designed to be highly adaptable, allowing large roles to be split between multiple children to ensure everyone has a chance to shine without the need for complex scenery. Beyond the performance, the script provides a wealth of curriculum links and discussion ideas centred on teamwork, kindness to those who are different from us, and the value of celebrating each other's differences. With six catchy songs - three of which can be performed as stand-alone pieces in assemblies - this musical is a fantastic way to teach your students that the things that make us different make us strong.
