Which KS2 Musical is Perfect for Your Pupils?

Has your classroom been buzzing with excitement for a new production? With such a dazzling array of KS2 musicals on offer, choosing the ideal show for your budding performers might feel like a grand undertaking. But fear not—your star students are about to get the perfect spotlight!

Before the curtain rises, consider these important factors for each KS2 musical you’re reviewing:

  • Age Range
  • Duration
  • Ideal Cast Size
  • Number of Speaking Roles

Weighing up these details from the start will help ensure a smooth rehearsal schedule and a triumphant finale.

Next, think carefully about the theme. The perfect KS2 musical could reflect your pupils’ current interests, complement their school curriculum, or even take inspiration from popular stories that will have them cheering for an encore.

For pupils who love a sprinkling of magic, treat them to the enchanting The Jingle Book or the spectacular adaptation of The Greatest Showman—each guaranteed to make them feel like they’re in the spotlight.

If your class prefers exploring the wonders of the natural world, our whimsical The Wrong Way Round and rockin’ Rock Bottom productions will captivate and engage their sense of adventure.

For history enthusiasts, we present the sensational Shakespeare Rocks!, a great fit for those delving into Shakespearean times, as well as the hilarious yet educational Greece Goes To Pieces, perfect for students exploring the marvels of Ancient Greece.

So, whether your pupils are eager to take centre stage in a fantastical journey or explore history with a toe-tapping twist, there’s a KS2 musical ready to bring down the house. Break a leg (figuratively, of course!), and get ready for a show-stopping performance.
