Easter with Wintershall: Taking Jesus’ story to where people are

Thirty years on from the first staged play of The Passion of Jesus, Tola-Doll Fisher spoke with Charlotte de Klee, trustee and producer of Wintershall, the world-famous organisation responsible for staging award-winning productions that focus on the birth, life, death and resurrection of Jesus 

Wintershall first featured in Woman Alive back in 2019, before my time as editor. In that interview, your mother Ann said that when she and your father Peter first decided to put on a nativity play in the grounds of your home, Wintershall – a 13th-century house in a 1,000-acre estate, in the heart of the Surrey – they had no idea it would become a world-famous production. What was it like growing up in that environment?
