Christmas Live 2022.
In 2022 we held our third Christmas Live event.
Mr Olly Cheshire from Douglas Town Centre Management
(otherwise known as Mr Christmas)
and a number of local groups,
gave Douglas a huge treat for the whole family:
- Unity Dance School gave us some pretty awesome Angelic dancing;
- Manx Gateway Drama Group provided our costumed characters;
- There were real, actual, live sheep there to see and stroke before and after;
- Spinnin' Vannin Performing Arts exploded onto the scene with much needed fire-angels!;
- Isle of Man Scouts and Girlguides, entered with a lit candle literally from Bethlehem itself, it had travelled by road and air ... The 'Peace Light' candle;
- Ruth Keggin-Gell (Manx Language Development Officer) taught us all a Manx Lullaby;
- We sang along with a brilliant 'karaoke' Christmas re-write, and upbeat trad carols along the way;
- Richard Costain popped over from Liverpool just to sing "O Holy Night" for us, before returning for a concert with the Liverpool Philharmonic!;
- The Salvation Army Band warmed us all up with trad tunes as we entered;
- Judith Ley from Manx Radio helped promote the event far and wide;
- Volunteers from various churches and communities across the Isle of Man gave us a band, picked litter, checked tickets and gave out programmes;
- Rev Alex Brown (Pioneer Minister) provided co-ordination, presenting and planning;
- Emma Nudd from Broadway Baptist Church was co-presenter;
- Switched On Events were all over the stage, sound and lights;
- Tevir Group opened up the use of Villiers Square for us;
An unforgettable Christmas Fix for the family.
