The final chapter of the greatest story ever told will be brought to life at Theatr Colwyn next weekend.

Perfectly placed for the Easter holiday, this encore screening comes live from Bristol Old Vic production of the acclaimed production Messiah provides a rare chance to experience the powerfully dramatic account of Jesus Christ in all its glory.

Inspired by the world’s most famous story, Messiah explores the drama and struggle of faith, showing a group of people whose grief at the loss of their leader is transformed into hope through a narrative of resurrection.

Through their despair, the Apostles gradually realise their mission is to redeem the world by sharing the story of Jesus’s life and death with all humanity.

Messiah is staged by the Tony Award-winning director Tom Morris - best known for War Horse - who presents this soaring and sublime opportunity to discover the intense spirituality of George Frideric Handel's profound religious masterpiece, and its many well-known arias and choruses.

Morris’ extraordinary production features Europe’s most celebrated Baroque orchestra, The English Concert, the magnificent Erebus Ensemble and a cast of internationally-renowned soloists.

This dramatised encore concert is a rare treat for theatre connoisseurs and musical enthusiasts alike, Messiah screens at Theatr Colwyn on Wednesday April 4 at 7pm.
