THE LICHFIELD MYSTERIES

Michael Fabricant joined many of the cast and friends of The Lichfield Mysteries on Saturday night (26th February) in the Guildhall, Lichfield in an evening of revelry, beer, and fun which included Madrigal singing, a visit from Nell Gwyn, FiFi the flea, and a dancing bear. All of this was to raise funds for the next performance of the Lichfield Mystery Plays to be held on April 30th and May 1st in 2006.

Michael says: "The Lichfield Mysteries is fast becoming one of the largest outdoor performances of its kind in Britain. Originally, it was thought they would only be held once in every ten years, but the performances held throughout the City of Lichfield have been such a fantastic success, they are now to be held every 3 years. A huge amount of work goes into these productions and they attract many tourists from abroad to our City. I am delighted to support this venture.

"I hope to invite the Secretary of State for Culture Media and Sport to Lichfield next year to witness the Mystery Plays in our City centre"
