Wintershall Nativity and Life of Christ

Having celebrated the Nativity in brixham as part of the Brixham Christmas Parade it was interesting to find out the Wintershall estate in Surrey produces a Nativity every year.

“This wonderful production takes place both inside and around Holly Barn at Wintershall, complete with shepherds and sheep, oxen, donkeys and the three wise men on horseback. It is the true story of the birth of our dear Lord Jesus and brings to life the real meaning of Christmas, helping all of us escape the turmoil of its present day commercialism and missing spirituality.”

This year's Wintershall Nativity, which we have just discovered is now fully booked, runs from Wednesday 17th to Sunday 21st December 2008! However it is still worth checking out the website www.wintershall-estate.com if you want to experience the ‘Life of Christ' as their amazing day long production of the major events of Jesus as described in the Gospels will be running in June. It is also very popular (up to 3000 people a day) and needs booking early in 2009 to avoid disappointment!

The estate says “The support and enthusiasm of our audiences have encouraged us to continue to perform The Life of Christ six times again next year from Tuesday 23rd June to Sunday 28th June 2009.Changes in the play will be continued in both the script and settings. It is the same wonderful story of Jesus and includes more of his miraculous signs, teaching and message. The performances will start at 10am and finish at 4pm.”
