Length: 8 Minutes | Cast: 3 Actors + Audience Choir | Genre: Interactive Christmas Skit
Theme: Joyfully Celebrating the Birth of Jesus Through Participation and Praise

Summary
In this interactive Christmas skit, two energetic leaders and a friendly narrator turn the whole crowd into an “Echo Choir.” Through simple call-and-response lines, playful clapping patterns, and short carol phrases, the audience helps retell the story of Jesus’ birth. From the quiet fields of Bethlehem to the angels’ announcement and the humble manger, children and adults join in by repeating key lines like “Do not be afraid,” “Good news, great joy,” and “Christ the Lord.” By the end, everyone has taken part in praising Jesus together and is invited to let the good news keep “echoing” in their homes, schools, and hearts long after Christmas.
