9 Months BC is a comic two-act retelling of the Nativity Story. Angels Islington and Delight take the audience on a trip through the trials and tribulations of Mary and Joseph's unorthodox pregnancy: from Archangel Gabriel's appearance before the (surprised) virgin mother, to their quest for Festive accommodation in Bethlehem, to press-ganging the Wise Men and Shepherds to witness and give presents, right up to the Holy Birth itself.

9 Months BC is an irreverent take on the traditional, school Nativity Play, in the vein of Monty Python's Life of Brian. As such, it can be performed by both young and adult groups. There is ample scope for doubling of parts to suit a smaller cast. For fifteen men and five women, although most roles can be played by either sex.
