COVINGTON, KY AND BEAVERCREEK, OH (FOX19) - Nativity The Pop Opera is a light hearted pop opera celebrating the Christmas story as seen through the eyes of the angels that were there.  The play, created for families to watch, also provides a chance for theater goers, sponsors and the community to be angels in their own way.  Proceeds from the production are used to provide assistance to the families and children who are being treated at the Cancer and Blood Diseases Institute (CBDI) at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center.  This support will allow kids to attend a life affirming week at ‘Njoy-it-all Camp at Camp Joy. 

The goal of the camp is to create a safe fun place for kids to develop friendships with others in similar situations, learn new skills, enhance self-esteem and learn the importance of managing their illness. But most importantly it just lets them be a kid in the summertime.
