ABOUT
Last year (16 December, 2021),
Mr Olly Cheshire from Douglas Town Centre Management
(otherwise known as Mr Christmas) made amazing, Christmas-filled plans with:
A live re-telling of the Christmas story.
We sang our hearts out in the huge crowd.
Watched characters from the Christmas story create the timeless scene of Jesus' birth.
Heard from and watched choirs, churches, dancers, animals and community groups.
Listened to the story unfold before us all.
Used volunteers from the audience (some were super enthusiastic)
And took advantage of the late night shops and cafe's as Christmas loomed.
F.A.Q.

The performance will be around 45 mins long.
Do we need tickets?
To guarantee a place at the show, grab a free ticket, but you will be able to get in on the door provided there is still space.

Villiers Square, Douglas. (Half way between Marks and Spencers and the sea - just off Fort Street).
Is it religious?
The story presented is the Christian story of the birth of Jesus, but it is presented in a way that is accessible and enjoyable to all.
Can anyone get involved?
We're looking for volunteers right now! Can you pick up sheep poop? Could you give out programmes, or litter-pick after the show? Maybe you would love, love, love to be in the choir? Perhaps you are keen to count people as they come in, or check tickets? If this is you (maybe your whole family together), send us a message in the 'contact us' bit below.
Who is involved?
Douglas Town Centre Management are working in partnership with a number of organisations, all of whom are working on plans, hoping that the funds come in to make this happen.
