Bus Stop 23 - inspiring modern nativityBus Stop 23 - modern nativity

What would happen if Jesus was born today, in a bus shelter in your town centre?

This inspirational retelling of the timeless Christmas story imagines the impact of such a happening on the lives of ordinary people, touched by the birth of Jesus at the number 23 bus stop.

In addition to a modern-day Mary and Joseph, the nativity play includes a traffic warden, late night garage mechanics ("watching over and tending their vehicles"), and a group of local councillors at a late night meeting.

It includes seven fabulous songs, a mix of uplifting modern carols, character songs, ballads and stirring songs of praise.

Includes:

  • captivating story-telling;
  • fresh, heart-stirring songs;
  • easily-learned parts;
  • rousing ending.

Easy to produce - only requires simple props. Magical original songs. 

  • Age range: 12-18 years.
  • Junior version: 7 to 11 years
  • Nativity play duration: 25 minutes
