Details

Did Mary really exist? So rarely mentioned in the Gospels, and insignificant in her own lifetime until an angel allegedly appeared to her in a dream, is she one of history's hallucinations? And if she did exist, is she anything like our idea of her? The telling of this tale ranges from breathless action and comedy to timeless humanity and poignancy as we follow Mary's urgent and very human journey. Along the way she encounters a grotesque gatekeeper, the archangel Gabriel, assassins, magicians from the East and her own mad aunt, all the time wondering where the child that she carries really came from. The show imagines the experiences of Mary's life in full and pushes the drama to its limit, from her comic self-absorption as an awkward young girl who spends her time talking to angels, through the pain of pregnancy and the strangeness of giving birth to a force that she cannot control.
