Synopsis: The Inaccurate Conception is a raucous and often slightly surreal celebration of everyone's first brush with the theatre - the school Nativity Play! Celia Whibley is a young teacher directing class 3C of Verruca Street Primary School in just such a play, and though the children are unprepossessing and unco-operative, they are the least of Celia's troubles - her real obstacle is the unhelpful staff. Battling against the odds within and outside the classroom is a "learning experience" for poor Celia. . . Will the struggle have been worth it? Seven-year-olds, teachers and parents alike are played by adults in this energetic and warm-hearted comedy. | ||||
