The Chester Plays
The complete set of plays would take at least seven hours; for Christmas 1985 we have prepared shortened versions of seven of the twenty-four plays:
The Banes.
The Creation of The World and Adam and Eve.
Noe's Deluge.
The Salutation and Nativity of Our Saviour Jesus Christ.
The Shepherds Watching their Flocks.
The Three Kings from the East and King Herod.
The Adoration of the Three Kings.
