This is a question Nativity Plays

Every year the little kids at schools all over get to put on a play. Often it's christmas themed, but the key thing is that everyone gets a part, whether it's Snowflake #12 or Mary or Grendel (yes, really).

Personally I played a 'Rich Husband' who refused to buy matches from some scabby street urchin. Never did see her again...

Who or what did you get to be? And what did you have to wear?

Ahh, plays..
At primary school I was renowned for being a pretty good actor, so I would usually get one of the main parts (if not the main one) in the years' production. (Incidentally, I am a failed child actor, after no-one hired me for any major roles, HA!)

The school plays were generally quite fun, as one of the teachers had a habit of sticking contemporary/cool musical numbers in plays (Hamlet was good fun at the time with everyone singing 'Bohemian Rhapsody' after our mad Dutchman kills Polonius).

One Christmas, with only the plot and major scenes written by the teachers, the students were given the chance to co-write their own story. In this play I was given the part of the main cultist villain who poses as an OFSTED inspector to invade the school, whilst capturing the attractive girls and making everyone suffer until I get ousted and blown up by the play's heroes.

I think it was the choice of characters that only recently have I truly become worried about what kind of environment I was educated in:

My character was dressed in big white altar boy vestments, the hood spiked up by a peculiar cone; I didn't look cultist, I looked like a fucking KKKlansman.

The worst part? My character name.

David Koresh.

What The Fuck?

Did anyone else have a christmas play that involved David Koresh as a Ku Klux Klansman invading a primary school and kidnapping the girls, only to get murdered by the A-Team?


Length? Messianic.

For a minute there...
I thought I was having a flashback :)

Why was my school so fucking boring?
