Taormina Trappitello, December 26th 2012 – January 13th 2013

During Christmas time in Italy, you are bound to come across cribs in homes and piazzas all over the country. Many cities also have a living crib, or a living nativity scene. It is thought that St. Francis hosted the first living nativity scene in 1223, sparking a tradition that continues in Italy to this day. Beginning on Christmas day, and running until January 6th, towns throughout Italy hold pageants to reenact the night of Jesus’ birth. Actors portray Mary, Joseph, the three Magi and other biblical figures from the gospel.
In Trappitello, hamlet of the town of Taormina, every year since 2001, in Chrismas time, a Living Crib with more than 100 (150 this year) actors and “walk-ons” is organised. The Show lasts several days, from Christmas to half January.

The location set is the huge garden of the old small church of Santa Venera.

How to get there: 500 metres from the motorway exit – Motorway Messina/Catania (A18), Exit Giardini Naxos, direction Trappitello – Francavilla di Sicili
