Hungarian State Folk Ensemble: Wonderful Nativity
Evoking the excitement of anticipation and waltzing with angels in the bright starlight, to playfully immerse yourself in the Christmas wonderland. The Hungarian State Folk Ensemble's nativity programme counts down to the night of the birth of Jesus, with scenes that are sometimes comic and other times heart-warming. The joyful period comes to life in this marvellous world of games, Christian traditions and stories drawn from folk customs, and it is no secret that we might even see a snowman, snow fairy, or ‘táltos' shaman horse break out into dance now and then!
