By Robert Lord

SYNOPSIS

This new Zealand classic follows the Bishop family over forty years. Beginning on the morning of Christmas Day 1949, it follows their journey over various Christmas Day gatherings until 1989.

You'll love watching the changing relationships and fortunes in this compassionate and compelling insight into family life. Robert Lord's last play, "Joyful and Triumphant", is regarded as his finest.
