I wish it could be Christmas everyday...

Christmas is coming, the geese are getting fat so it must be time for Lichfield Mysteries to start working on a Nativity production!
We are doing something completely different this year - well, the story's the same - obviously! - but we are doing 'pop-up' Nativities, in conjunction with Lichfield's Late Night Listeners. If you haven't encountered the Late Night Listeners then you obviously don't spend Friday and Saturday nights partying in Lichfield City Centre! They are a lovely bunch of people who set up a stall with tea and coffee and look out for people who may have had too much to drink, be in distress or just want a chat. They provide a sympathetic ear, point people in the direction of taxis and will even supply emergency flip-flops if your 7'' heels are proving a bit too much. We are going to put together a short, entertaining version of the Nativity and the weekend before Christmas we will be 'popping-up' outside some of the favourite pubs between 10.30 and midnight to entertain and generally add to the  festive mood.
If this appeals to you and you would like to get involved with the Nativity please get in touch via the Mysteries website
Ho Ho Ho!!!

Nativity 2013 - and now for something completely different...

Nativity Play - December 19th and 20th December - 9pm to 11pm

This Christmas gives us the chance to bring the concept of the Mysteries to a wider audience and to work with other organisations in Lichfield - particularly Late Night Listeners.

The proposal for this Christmas is to perform a Nativity Play (and suitable songs/carols) to late night revellers in Lichfield City Centre. We plan to put on 4 performances of a short play outside a number of pubs and clubs between about 9pm and 11pm - a total of 8 performances over 2 nights on the weekend before Christmas.

Does this slightly different offer interest you? If it does, come along to:

Wade Street Church (The Lichfield Room) - entrance in Frog Lane

On Wednesday 25th September at 7.30pm.

We will be looking at scripts and songs to see what would work best for the 'players' and audience. Late Night Listeners know the 'clubbers' pretty well and a number have already said they want to take part.

We really hope to see you on the 25th September, but if you can't make it and would like to take part, drop Rick Hill an email:
