The Wisbech Players’ next production will be ‘The Flint Street Nativity’, which tells the story of a group of seven and eight-year-olds gearing up for the evening’s sole performance of the school’s nativity play.

“Written by Tim Firth (‘Calendar Girls’), the action centres on the pre-performance classroom preparations to the final stage performance, which culminates in calamity,” say the group.

“There are inevitable mishaps, misunderstandings, young egos, fears of failure and fallings out…”

The play will be directed by Linda Ekins and run at Wisbech Angles Theatre from Tuesday November 22 to Saturday 26 for a range of 7.30pm performances.

Tickets; £10, available from www.anglestheatre.co.uk/the-flint-street-nativity.html
