Plot

Not the Messiah (He's a Very Naughty Boy) offers a humorous oratorio inspired by Monty Python's Life of Brian. The story follows Mandy, who bears Brian after an encounter with a Roman soldier. Brian, an unwitting revolutionary aligned with the People's Front of Judea, finds himself entangled in love with Judith. Mistaken for a Messiah, he faces arrest and crucifixion by the Romans. The performance features an eclectic blend of musical influences, including Handel, a cheeky Mozart duet, and the beloved "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life," creating a lively and irreverent celebration.
