Nativity! The Musical (Coming December 2024)

SMTC are delighted to announce that it will be performing Nativity! The Musical from Wednesday 18th to Sunday 22nd December 2024, to be staged at The Barnes Theatre, Shrewsbury School. Please subscribe to the website for future updates regarding casting, we will of course be on the lookout for some super talented primary aged children :-)

Feel-good, funny and full of joy, this cracker of a musical was adapted for the stage by Debbie Isitt, the creator of the much-loved films.

Every child in every school has one Christmas wish, to star in a Nativity, and at St Bernadette’s School they’re attempting to mount a musical version! Only trouble is teacher Mr Maddens has promised that a Hollywood producer is coming to see the show to turn it into a film. Join him, his teaching assistant the loveable Mr Poppy, hilarious children and a whole lot of sparkle and shine as they struggle to make everyone’s Christmas wish come true.

Featuring all of your favourite sing-a-long hits from the movies including Sparkle and Shine, Nazareth, One Night One Moment, She’s the Brightest Star and a whole host of new songs, this musical really ‘is a heartfelt hit’ (The Times).
