Summary:

Heaven’s holding auditions—and things in Bethlehem are about to get hilarious!

In this fun, family-friendly Christmas play, three angels host a talent competition to find the perfect act to announce the birth of Jesus. But the auditions don’t exactly go as planned. The carolers can’t sing in tune, the dramatic narrator treats the nativity like an action movie, and the dancing angels can’t remember their steps. Even the wise men show up with modern gifts like a tablet and a teddy bear!

Just when chaos reigns, a group of humble shepherds arrive with a simple message of peace and faith. Their sincerity reminds everyone that Christmas isn’t about perfect performances—it’s about a perfect Savior.

Filled with laugh-out-loud moments, heartwarming dialogue, and a touching manger finale, Bethlehem’s Got Talent is the perfect addition to your church Christmas program, school concert, or family holiday event.
