Popular Nativity returns to Exeter Cathedral

Popular Nativity returns to Exeter Cathedral

The traditional Nativity returns to Exeter Cathedral

The Exeter Nativity returns to the city's Cathedral on Sunday December 17, with a star studded cast taking the parts of all the well-known members of the story and some not so well known.

Of course, Mary and Joseph, the Wise Men, Shepherds, King Herod and Gabriel will all make appearance.

But did you ever hear about the gossips of Nazareth? And what about the Innkeeper’s wife, without whom there would be no stable scene?

There are King Herod’s handmaids, one feeding him chocolate the other pouring him wine but drinking most of it herself!

However, the real stars are Harry and George, the llamas who dress up as very convincing, if slightly diminutive, camels.

This is a re-telling of the Christmas story for children, adults and the young at heart of any age.

It is brought to you by the staff of Exeter Cathedral and their friends and generously sponsored by C Tax – Christians Together Across Exeter.

The performance starts at 4pm and the doors open at 3:15pm.
