Script & Songs

A refreshing Easter musical with terrific, catchy songs - Spring has sprung. Hedgehogs wake, flowers grow, baby chicks, kittens and lambs bounce around, and there's an Easter card for Grandma.

Click the "Script & Songs" tab to read the script, look at the score and listen to the songs.

This play offers a sweet and succinct introduction to Easter and the nature behind it. 'Springtime' opens the production and the narrators introduce the first family of animals; the hedgehogs. Not only does this provide a charming interaction between the hedgehog family, but the children performing and watching also learn about hibernation. 'Rise and Shine' follows.

The flowers then have the opportunity to rise and shine, and as they uncurl themselves, Joe enters with a watering can and the importance of sunshine and water is highlighted in this short but appealing section. 'Lots of Lovely Water' is sung and raindrops circle the flowers throughout.

Farmer Frank, Joe, Jess and Jenny enter, explaining the jobs they have to do which emphasises how busy Easter time is. After feeding the hens accompanied by 'Easter Chicks' the lambs are next in line to be seen to. During 'A Special Treat' the children feed the lambs with milk in order that they grow ‘big and strong.’ After an energetic scene with the lambs, the horses and ducks enter followed by the cat and her kittens, the rabbits and baby rabbits; soon the stage begins to represent your local farmyard! Once Caroline the Cow and her calves make their way onto the stage, 'Tired Little Animals' is sung and one by one, the animals all fall fast asleep...

Back at the farmyard house, Jenny, Joe, Jess and Farmer Frank are joined by Granny and Gramps who are presented with their Easter cards from their grandchildren and the children are given something more familiar to everyone at Easter………… Easter eggs! 'A Beautiful World' ends the show. A charming, informative production that is perfect for Key Stage 1 in the spring term.

Dave Corbett

Dave Corbett trained at London's Central School of Speech and Drama and subsequently worked in repertory theatre. Later he gained a Cert. Ed. in music and drama and worked for many years in primary education. During this time he wrote and staged many musicals.

In 1989 he left teaching and set up Music in Education Works (MEW), touring schools with his music and drama workshops. These enabled children to experience first hand the world of electronic music.

In 1992 Dave got involved musically with the family business; his brother Matthew presented a very popular children's television programme called 'Sooty & Co.' Harry Corbett, father to Dave and Matthew, invented Sooty, a glove puppet, way back in the 1950's. It has been the longest running children's TV character of all time. Dave's job for many years was to compose and record music for both the TV and theatre shows.

Dave has composed and recorded a great deal of material for several educational publishers, among others Heinemann, (you may use the LIVELY MUSIC teaching scheme which Dave was heavily involved with), IMP (MUSIC ABOUT US series), and Collins Educational (LETTERLAND). He has also written extensively for BBC Schools’ Radio, (Time and Tune, Singing Together and Music Workshop).
