This hilarious variety show is chock-full of one-liners, wintertime puns, and even a few knock-knock jokes. Plenty of parts allow you to feature oodles of young actors, or combine roles for just a select group of comedic kids. Silly skits include a pair of wisecracking reindeer, a snowflake ballet class, "Freeze-Whiz" (everyone's favorite game show), and a directionally challenged family of geese. Stage your scenes around your regular choral formation and you're good to go! 30 minutes.
