SUMMARY:El Pessebre Vivent du Roussillon
DESCRIPTION:Living Nativity across the region\nThe ‘Pessebre vivant’\,  living reconstruction of the Nativity\, is a long standing Catalan tradition. \nRecreated in 1960 by Albert Esteve\, poet\, playwright\, director\, historian … the Pessebre has been interpreted by several choirs including the late\, great Jordi Barre\, famous Catalan singer. \nJordi may be no longer with us\, but the tradition lives on with the Fanal Sant Vincens and other local associations still wishing to share this wonderful moment of meditation and celebration\, consisting of traditional songs\, sung by the familiar characters of the Nativity scene that many will recognise. \nIn some towns and villages\, these Nativity scenes come out onto the streets\, life-size\, to convey the essence of these festivities. \nThe leading characters\, dressed up in period clothes\, take their places in meticulously decorated stage-sets portraying traditional\, historical and biblical scenes. \nSometimes they will also sing and talk\, other times they will just stand/sit without moving!! \nThe census of the Jews\, the difficulties encountered by Joseph and Mary as they looked for somewhere to stay\, the Nativity and the coming of the Three Wise Men are among the many portrayals you will be able to witness. \nIn some of these creations\, there will be a commentary and spectacular special effects and lighting. \nWhere can you catch this festive performance? \n\n\n\n\n2019 \nSaturday 14th December\, 5pm\, Castelnou \nSunday 15th December\, 5pm\, Palau des Vidre \nSaturday 21st December\, 4pm\, Collioure \nSaturday 21st December\, 6pm\, Saint Cyprien \nSunday 22nd December 6pm\, Baixas \nThursday 26th December\, 5pm\, Ille sur Têt \nSaturday 28th December\, 4pm\, Villelongue de la Salanque \nSunday 29th December\, 4pm\, Céret \nSaturday 4th January\, 5pm\, Saint Michel de Llotes \nSunday 5th January\, 4pm\, Carmel de Vinça\n\n\n\n© Image: Balade en Pays Catalan \n
