After visiting similar Christmas performances in Pals and Castell d’Aro, we could not resist and went to see live nativity scenes to Tossa de Mar. The entourage of an old fortress with evening lighting makes a serious contribution to the overall impression, almost complete immersion in the atmosphere of two thousand years ago…
Unlike the two above-mentioned cities, in Tossa, the show is represented in the form of a theatrical performance. The local residents who took part in the production and dressed in the clothing of “those times” played 10 scenes related to the story of Christ’s birth. After each scene the narrator escorted the group of spectators to the place of the next scene, and their place was taken by a new group of people eager for bread and entertainment… Of particular note is the scene with the traditional Catalan shepherd-caganer, I believe you know what it means😁.
