Season: July 17th - 26th, 2026
Title: A Vicar of Dibley Christmas: The Second Coming
Presented By: MATES Theatre Genesis Inc.
Genre: Comedy / Stage Adaptation
Synopsis: Adapted from the original television series, A Vicar of Dibley Christmas: The Second Coming brings two much-loved episodes to the stage.
In Act One, the village reflects on the “Great Storm” before being invited to present its own local radio program. In Act Two, Geraldine takes charge of Dibley’s annual Christmas nativity play while Alice and Hugo prepare for the birth of their first child.
Filled with familiar characters, village chaos and plenty of misunderstandings, this festive comedy celebrates the warmth and eccentricity of Dibley.
