Whatever else be lost among the years, let us keep Christmas – for its meaning never ends.
The Nativity Pageant of Knoxville Press Release
August 28, 2020
After much careful consideration, The Nativity Pageant of Knoxville Board of Directors has made the difficult decision to cancel this year’s pageant due to ongoing concerns over COVID-19 in our community. The Board of Directors prayerfully considered all the options and spoke with key people in our community to determine whether or not we could safely hold the pageant this year. After much deliberation and prayer, we determined that we do not see a way to safely hold an indoor live event of this magnitude during a pandemic.
The Board of Directors are continuing to explore other opportunities to share the story to our community during the holiday season. While we are deeply saddened to cancel the Nativity Pageant, we look forward to our 53rd year, next year. We look forward to welcoming back our cast, choir, and community next December for a live pantomime of the traditional Christmas story of the birth of Jesus Christ.
