Drawing talent from all over the greater Kanawha Valley, this year’s cast includes Savannah Grose in the title role, with Nik Tidquist as Joseph, Susannah Atkins as the Archangel Gabriel, Maddie Wright as Elizabeth, David McMahon as Zechariah, and Blaize Hassan as Herod, along with a chorus of angels and spies, and live accompaniment led by Lisa Peery. The annual production began rehearsals in early October for the traditional opening night the day after Thanksgiving. A driving score and an ageless story continue to give audiences new insight to the days and months leading up to the first Christmas.
