| Reduced Nativity Competition - Winners |
 |
| The overall winner of the competition to tell the Nativity Story in under 30 seconds or in less than 90 words was someone the judge Adam Long of the Reduced Shakespeare Company commended for "taking reduction to heart". The winner was Vandita Chisholm with this reduction: The best runner-up was a submission on CD featuring Debbie Pepper, Randle Hurley, Cameron Pepper, Isaac Woodvine, Sheila Shipley, John Lansley and Tanya Lansley. |
