Starry Night, Noisy Night is a charming Christmas musical filled with humorous references to modern distractions that prevent us from experiencing the true meaning of Christmas. The story is told from the stable animals’ point of view: Cows, who are annoyed by the bright starlight; Sheep, who spend so much time gazing through their window at the activity outside the stable they almost miss the miraculous scene unfolding before them; and Chickens, who are too busy pecking out IMs to other chickens to receive the message conveyed by the birth of the Christ Child. The musical ends on a quiet, reverent, and worshipful note, turning away from life’s distractions to celebrate God’s great gift of love. Performance time: approximately 20 minutes
