The Christian Humanitarian Reading Initiative for Spiritual Theatre (or C.H.R.I.S.T. for short) are putting on a production of The Nativity Story. It's opening night and nothing is going to plan. Despite a collapsing manger, a deranged donkey, and a director on the brink of hysteria, the show must go on. This hilarious tour-de-force is the second farce from Mischief, creators of the critically acclaimed T he Play That Goes Wrong . Once again, we watch as order unravels itself and pandemonium ensues in a piece that will be loved both as a piece to perform and one to watch. The Nativity Goes Wrong received its world premiere at Reading Rep on 22 December. “At one point I feared I was going to hyperventilate” ― Daily Mail, on The Play That Goes Wrong “A triumph of split-second timing” ― Metro, on The Play That Goes Wrong Henry Lewis is an award-winning writer and actor.
