Nativity PlaysEvery 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?

At my catholic primary...we didn't just do plays about the birth of baby jebus. We also did plays about him being killed and coming back to life and I, dear reader, I was that zombie.
For some reason, the only part that sticks in my mind was the moment the rock (big cardboard box painted brown) was pushed aside and I arose with arms outstretched and a beatific look on my face while everyone else on the stage fell to their knees and worshipped me. Sweet.
And the next year I actually got a promotion and was cast as god.
Low self-esteem was never really an issue for me at primary school.
