Directed by Hanna Adu-Boateng 

Designed by Meriel Pym 

A young woman is expecting, three magi are researching the heavens and two shepherd children are bored out of their heads minding the sheep - well nothing interesting ever happens around Bethlehem in December, does it?! Wise men (and not so wise men), talking sheep, angels, a shepherd family, camels, a horrible Herod, and carols (old and new) all go to make up a magical retelling of the story of the first Christmas.

Suitable for all ages.

Shows Saturday 4th and Sunday 5th December 10am and 11:30am
