Details

The Mysteries retells the bible story in a vivid and contemporary way. This adaptation by Christopher Denys of the highly respected Bristol Old Vic, tells the story of the highs and lows of the history of Christianity through drama, music and song. On the way you meet some of the Bible’s more colourful characters including dastardly Cain, long-suffering Noah, the Virgin Mary, the Angel Gabriel and even Satan. The Mysteries is an engaging theatrical mix of epic proportions with the dramatic, the comical, the moving and the gripping bringing these memorable stories to life. When Jesus speaks during the Resurrection scene, it is clear that his message is as relevant and meaningful to audiences today as it was in the Middle Ages. So if you want fresh inspiration this Christmas season, be sure to book seats for your family and friends now, as The Mysteries looks set to sell out at every performance.
