Inspired by The Manchester Passion, Liverpool Nativity employs the city's great musical heritage as the soundtrack to a contemporary music drama set in a fictitious state, a tale as relevant today as it was 2,000 years ago. The live event tells the intimate personal story of a pregnant young girl set against a backdrop of political tension and unrest and stars a host of well- known Liverpool actors and personalities.
