Presented by Kingdom Arts, O Favored One isn’t your average Christmas production. It’s an original musical written by local pastor Andrew Burchett- right here in Chico. O Favored One debuted in December of 2025, where audiences laughed, cried, sang along, and experienced the Christmas story through the eyes of Joseph in a way many had never seen before. We are so excited to bring it to our community once again.
The story of O Favored One began on a vacation near Lake Tahoe, when Andrew wrote a simple song about Joseph’s “yes” to God. That spark became more than 30 original songs and a full script that brings the Nativity story to life in ways you’ve never seen before.
At its heart, the musical follows Joseph - an ordinary man caught in extraordinary circumstances - showing his doubts, dreams, and trust in God. Along the way, you’ll laugh at awkward encounters, delight in unexpected humor, and be moved by music that captures both the beauty and the struggle of their journey.
This isn’t just a show - it’s an invitation for the audience to step into the story of Jesus' Birth in a fresh, deeply human way.

Yes! While the Dome has pews, we are labeling each seat so that when you purchase your ticket, you’ll know exactly where you’ll be sitting for the performance. That means no more arriving an hour early to spread jackets and programs to save seats!
Volunteer ushers will be stationed in every aisle to help you quickly and easily find your seat.
Absolutely! We encourage you to buy a block of seats for a large group because everything is better with friends!
Tier 1 gives a discount for groups of 5-20. If you need more than 10, you can buy multiple sets of group tickets.
Once you have chosen your seats, choose the Group price category as you are checking out.
The performance will run approximately 2 hours and 20 minutes, including a 15-minute intermission. The first act is considerably longer than the second, and we anticipate the show will conclude before 10:00 pm for evening shows and by 5:00 pm for Sunday matinées..
Absolutely! Please consider if your little ones can sit for the whole show, which is 2 hours and 15 min. There will be a 20 min intermission.
We hope your whole family enjoys the show and it sparks great conversations!
Well… if you get up and wander into the aisle at the wrong moment, it’s certainly possible!
We are thrilled to be partnering with animal actors to help tell the story of O Favored One. After all, you can’t tell the story of Jesus’ birth in a stable without animals being present. And yes, there will undoubtedly be a little mess on the carpets at some point!
Which animals, you ask? Well, you’ll just have to come see the show to find out.
All ticket sales are final. If you can't make the showtime on your ticket, we recommend gifting your ticket to someone who will enjoy the show.
