The curtain has fallen (metaphorically, at least) on the 2023 cycle of the Chester Mystery Plays, and what an amazing experience it was for the sell-out audiences as well as the incredible cast, crew and behind-the-scenes helpers - the energy and creativity, community spirit and shear joy of it all has been truly unforgettable. If you came to see the show please do give us your feedback to help us know what worked and what needs improving for the next cycle, when we all get the chance to do it again…

We were lucky enough to have two talented photographers on board who have taken some amazing shots of the production, and are delighted to make these available for private use.

The Chester Mystery Plays are a historic theatrical event presented under professional direction by the people of Chester. Their performance, once every five years, has become a rare and much anticipated highlight of the British arts calendar, attracting people from all over the world. The production is one of the largest community events in the UK featuring hundreds of enthusiasts of all ages among the cast, crew and the support teams working in administration, marketing and front of house.
