iHope Christmas

This year's musical was about group of kids who create their own web show called "iHope Live", based on the name of the main character – Hope. They want to do a Christmas special but feel like they need more inspiration and information before going "live." To find what they're looking for, they seek out Hope's great aunt, who used to be in show business. Hope and her friends find themselves with some pretty eccentric "showbiz-type" people who inspire them. 
The dancers welcomed everyone to the show with this tune: 
Welcome to, welcome to, welcome to our show
We're really glad you made the trip, so turn off your cell phones!
Sit right back, settle in, get comfy and relax. 
Enjoy the Web show iHope Live, starring Hope and Max. 

Callie's stage name was Swirly, Maleah was Jingles

 and Samantha was Twirly.

  And now it's time for "Random Dancing"

Jessica had a much bigger role this year. She, Hayden and Maddie played the iHope groupies. Jessica especially loved getting to be silly the whole time with Hayden and Maddie.

The 'groupies' sang "You Are Jesus (I Am Yours)" and they did a beautiful job. It was probably my favorite song of the whole play.

There's Jess in the back with Hayden and Maddie swaying and dancing to Emily's song. Emily did an amazing job.

And then the grand finale was "A Little Hope." The kids really out did themselves this year and so did Nikki and Tara. I know I say that every year but even Clint said it was the best Christmas play yet!
