Blyth: Players ready to present a night of hilarious nativity chaos

The Blyth Players are performing the Flint Street Nativity for their next show

This hilarious and touching comedy is written by the people behind Calendar Girls.

The infant class at Flint Street School is preparing for their first nativity play.

Unfortunately, Mary has a fierce competitor in the spiteful angel Gabriel, a wise man is verbally challenged, Herod is obsessed by sport and the innkeeper is behaving like a psychopath.

Through the inevitable mishaps, misunderstandings, young egos, fears of failure and fallings out, the children’s characters evolve into mirror images of their parents in the audience.

This uplifting, fast-paced comedy reminds us that, even as adults, we’re never far away from being children.

The show runs from next Thursday 9th to Saturday 1th October at 7.30pm each night.

Tickets priced £6 (£5 concessions) are available on 07784 916250 or by emailing [email protected]
