About this event
Around twenty actors and seven musicians, all volunteers, share their pleasure in bringing this play to life. It tells of the announcement of Jesus’s birth to the shepherds and the journey of all the characters from a Provençal village to the nativity scene. The shepherds, the knife grinder, the miller, the innkeeper, the trio of old men, the blind man and his son, the Roma man and his son, and the farmhands all bring the scenes to life with great energy as they make their way.
Regular audience members enjoy hearing the familiar tunes again, while newcomers are won over by their immersion in this Provençal world.
To make the play easier to understand, a simultaneous French translation is projected.
