Saturday, December 15, 2pm and 7pm, King Arts Complex [Pythian Theater], 867 Mt. Vernon Ave.

’Tis the season to enjoy the “Holiday spirit” with Nia Performing Arts Inc. and the cast of Black Nativity. Come and enjoy the timeless Langston Hughes Classic about the Birth of Jesus set in Africa and present-day church. The central message of the Christmas narrative is the coming of Jesus, the Messiah to the Earth. Come experience the energetic presentation by a cast of actors, dancers, singers and musicians who will bring into focus the true meaning and object of Christmas.

This year’s cast will demand the audiences to listen attentively to the true message of Christmas. It is not about the giving and/or receiving of gifts; it is not about the eating, drinking and making merry; it is not even about the coming together of family and friends. Christmas is about the Babe of Bethlehem, the Prince of Peace, and the King of Kings. It’s all about Jesus!

Holiday Market Place will open one hour before and after the performance and will be open during intermission.

Tickets may also be purchased in person or over the phone at The King Arts Complex at 614-645-KING or at Nia Performing Arts at 614-848-3550.

Ticket pricing: general: $20.00; member: $15.00

This event will be held in the Pythian Theater at the King Arts Complex.
