Darin Hubin, above, the “Journey To Bethlehem” fishmonger, shows off his catch of tilapia during the Auburn Adventist Academy’s interactive, outdoor drama production on Dec. 5, the first of four showings over the weekend.

Guests become part of the story as they take the journey to Bethlehem. Up to 6,500 guests each year enjoy the family-friendly start to the Christmas season.

The production has raised more than $50,000 in donations for the Auburn Food Bank.
