SET DESIGN
The set can be simply designed with 5 large geometric shapes painted brown, as if
they were wooden structures of part of the playground. The children's choir can stand
on risers upstage.
A sign reads: "Welcome to the Prayground!"

Lighting
Light your stage and risers uniformly. The story takes place in the morning, so the
lights can be bright. Add spots as necessary downstage for the main actors.
During the song, "Listen," dim the stage lights and bring up a spot on the soloist.
For a little extra techno-feel, use colored lighting effects for the song, "Hear It in the
Ringtone." Also consider adding colors and effects for the last song, "All About the
Call (Reprise)."
Audio
For best results, mic your children's choir separately and provide 6 wireless headset/
lavalier mics for Coach Walker and the five kids with speaking parts.
Visual
To fully enhance your production, the easy-to-use Accompaniment DVD available from
wordmusic.com is the perfect background complement! (080689596094)
