Illustrated artwork with a blue, starry night sky in the background. On the left is an illustration of a person wearing white with gold accents, with wings and a halo. On the right of the image, text reads 'The Vicar of Dibley. The Greatest Nativity Ever Told (well almost)'. A red and white Santa hat sits on top of the letter 'r' and the 'o' is replaced by a red heart. Below the text is the distant silhouette of palm trees surrounding what appears to be a manger with two people stood either side of a raised basket or feeding trough.

Exeter Little Theatre Company presents

The Vicar of Dibley: The Greatest Nativity Ever Told (well almost)

  • Show Information

Exeter Little Theatre Company are delighted to bring you the further escapades of those iconic, well-known characters of Dibley by presenting this hilarious and well-loved comedy adapted from the original TV series written by Richard Curtis and Paul Mayhew-Archer.

We continue the story with the delayed return of Alice and Hugo from their honeymoon complete with a little surprise. Mix this with the chaotic setting up of Radio Dibley and a quirky village quiz; unsurprisingly, this results in hilarious antics and surprising confessions. As Christmas approaches, The Reverand Geraldine Granger (much-loved and chocolate addicted vicar) wants to stage a unique Christmas play, and of course, chaos reigns as she auditions, rehearses and finally performs the show, resulting in the most hilarious Nativity.

With these larger-than-life characters and a laugh in every line, this show promises to be a gloriously entertaining night out to get you in the festive mood.


Audience feedback:

“I absolutely loved The Vicar of Dibley when it was on TV. Your show tonight was equally fab!!’

“The best laugh I’ve had in ages”

“Fantastic! I laughed all the way through. The cast was great!’

“Brilliant! We didn’t stop laughing. Well done”
