The Scouse Nativity
Scouse Nativity by Kevin Fearon
Oh Come 'Ed Ye Faithful
It's back baby! The daddy of them all is returning for 2026 as we get the gang together and take on THE GREATEST STORY EVER TOLD!
We've cut down the curtains for costumes, pinched a donkey from the zoo and got a loan manger so we're all set for another Christmas show packed with silly jokes and amazing live music!
It's Bethlehem, 0 AD (or 0 BC, I'm not too clued up on these things). Terry, a lonely shepherd looks out over the land and sees that all is good. Apart from that bloody great star. He should probably take a look at that.
But Terry's shepherd mates are lining up the ale at the King Herod's Arms and there's no way he's missing a night on the lash. Not at Christmas.
And so it came to pass (fortunately for The Royal Court) that Terry, in the pub with his mates, decided to keep a record of that beautiful star and the events that followed. 2026 years later we have finally unlocked the secrets of the Gospel according to Saint/Our Terry... The Scouse Nativity!
So get the flock down to The Court - Christmas begins right here!

"Entertaining, hilarious and witty" North West End
