This amateur production of “The Flint Street Nativity” is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd. www.concordtheatricals.co.uk
Imagine a group of adults stepping into the shoes of seven-year-olds, bringing their nativity play to life with side-splitting results! At Flint Street Junior School, the stage is set for a riotous performance where grown-ups channel their inner child, leading to a series of laugh-out-loud moments.
Expect plenty of giggles and surprises as Gabriel dreams of playing Mary, the Star complains he’s not as cool as the ones at NASA, and Herod can’t stop waving to his mum. Meanwhile, the mischievous Innkeeper is on a mission to spice up the script, and just when you think things couldn’t get any more ridiculous, the class stick insect makes a daring escape!
It’s a delightful mix of chaos and charm that you won’t want to miss.
