Synopsis

Joseph, the Carpenter, seems destined never to find love, until one day a beautiful girl enters his workshop to escape from a storm.

Her name is Mary, and three months later they are married.

But on their wedding night Mary tells Joseph that she is already pregnant

So begins a remarkable journey involving giants, shepherds, kings, devils and angels.

A journey covering hundreds of miles and ending in a divine miracle

Using all the storytelling magic associated with Young Vic productions such as Grimm Tales and More Grimm Tales, David Farr breathes new life into one of the world's greatest stories.
