Victor Hugo’s Wondrous Feast

America meets Guernsey at Christmas! ‘Victor Hugo’s Wondrous Feast’ was broadcast this year across the US. The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square’s Christmas Concert is regularly the most watched Christmas broadcast in America. This year the world-famous choir celebrated the true story of Victor Hugo and the poor children of Guernsey!

 

The sumptuous and uplifting play, narrated by Lesley Nicol of Downton Abbey fame, brings the true story of Victor Hugo and the poor children of Guernsey enchantingly to life! The Victor Hugo in Guernsey Society is proud to have helped in the genesis of this play. If you like singing, if you like Christmas, if you like a true and heart-warming Christmas story of brotherly love in action, or just like to see Guernsey on the world stage, this is for you! Watch it now on the PBS channel.
