Pick Me Up: Nativity! The Musical

NATIVITY! THE MUSICAL

Grand Opera House, York

Pick Me Up's production of Nativity! The Musical returns to the Grand Opera House in York in 2024 by popular demand after its hugely successful run two years ago – described by York Mix as "the perfect start to the festive season".

 

Every child in every school has one Christmas wish – to star in a Nativity – and at St Bernadette’s School they’re attempting to mount a musical version! Only trouble is teacher Mr Maddens has promised that a Hollywood producer is coming to see the show to turn it into a film.

Join him, his teaching assistant the crazy Mr Poppy, hilarious children and a whole lot of sparkle and shine as they struggle to make everyone’s Christmas wish come true.

Feel –good, funny and full of yuletide joy, Nativity! The Musical features all of the favourite sing-a-long hits from the films including Sparkle and Shine, Nazareth, One Night One Moment, She’s the Brightest Star and a whole host of new songs filled with the spirit of Christmas!
