Once again, a donkey will star in the production and there will also be trumpeters, dancers, music, drama as well as choral singing from the Ripon Cathedral Choir and Lay Clerks.

The Very Rev John Dobson, Dean of Ripon said: “Last year some 450 people packed the cathedral for a fascinating telling of the Christmas story, raising £7,000 for the Ripon Cathedral Music Trust.

“I am sure this year’s production will be just as dramatic so take my advice and book your tickets early”.
