The Nativity

Friday 05 December 2025, Saturday 06 December 2025 at for 2 hours
St Matthew's Walsall
Church Hill Walsall, WS1 3DG, United Kingdom
The Nativity is a new adaptation of the story of the birth of Jesus, as told in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke. This community theatre production takes the story back to the basics, the shepherds are labourers who don't wear dressing gowns; the Magi are figures of authority; Herod is a frustrated vassal of Rome; Mary and Joseph are a young couple facing enormous responsibility.

The Nativity is a St Matthew's Walsall production.

Tickets £5

If you require a wheelchair space, please email [email protected] with your booking details and we will ensure a space with seating for the rest of your party nearby.
