Comment from audience member: “Just wanted to say how much we enjoyed last night’s performance of the Messiah. It was so well done and hilarious.”
The funniest and most magical Nativity you will ever see.
A travelling troupe of two actors and an opera singer arrive by donkey to masterfully, movingly and miraculously enact the greatest story ever told.
The troupe play a cast of thousands in a comedy that conjures up the sublime, the ridiculous and the truly angelic.
