See Papa Panov - A Christmas Musical on Facebook, for more info about this production and how it came about.

This production is not an exclusive or "definitive" version of the musical and has been produced independently of the composer (though with his permission and blessing, of course). The choir are amateurs, and this is a not-for-profit production and so you are invited to watch with that in mind.

Making a movie is quite different than staging a theatrical play, of course, requiring quite a different approach. There are several significant changes and omissions to the script, music and staging (compared to the original theatrical script available for purchase on this website). Many of these changes were made for creative and/or timing reasons.

What you will see is not the full stage show, but a lovely and creative interpretation of it.

If you like what you see, we hope that you will consider doing the play next year at your church or school. Why not ask the people that choose what your church or school will present next year to consider "Papa Panov - A Christmas Musical"!

Check out a few screen shots of the production!!
