Also this year the Viterbo Christmas will be more magical with the Living Nativity of Corchiano on the days of 25, 26, 28, 29 December 2013 and 1, 5 and 6 January 2014. On 8 December 2013, instead, the special theatrical re-enactment of the 1st edition of the Christmas representation.
The aspect that characterizes the Living Nativity of Corchiano is its theatricality. Organized by the Pro-Loco Corchiano Association, the event has kept its system of development unchanged from its birth until today. The Living Nativity of Corchiano is a real outdoor theatrical show focused on the theme of the Holy Nativity, of which the most salient moments are retraced. From the grandstand, properly installed, it is possible to enjoy a privileged and unique view. The show is enriched by numerous stage effects and the soundtrack that accompanies the entire performance of the show curated by the Oscar winner Nicola Piovani and narrated by Gigi Proietti. For seven years the Living Nativity scene has been held in a new location, in the splendid scenery of the "Natural Monument of the Gorges" which is accessed via an imposing Etruscan road cut dug into the tuff. As for this edition, many new features are planned. We report a profound reinterpretation of the location of the show and of the scenography, exhibition of static nativity scenes in the ancient and artistic village, tastings of local products and from the Biodistretto of Via Amerina and of the Forre.
The Biodistretto della via Amerina e delle Forre is a non-profit organization of social utility made up of ten municipalities in the Viterbo area, farmers and private individuals, aims to promote organic farming, the dissemination of good rural and environmental practices, ecological reconversion of the economy, the protection and enhancement of biodiversity, the territory and common goods. Among its aims: an integrated territorial system and a model of sustainable development that starts from working in the fields. We also offer our visitors the opportunity to participate in guided tours of the churches of the town, the natural monument of the Forre and the ancient village of Corchiano, upon reservation.
