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?

Chinese New YearI once played a girl celebrating Chinese new year and I had to wear some other girls silk pj's and She cried about it as She wasn't in the play.
I was about 8 and it was odd doing the play in front of the whole school as there was not one Chinese pupil in the school.
I had to say chun hei fat choi which means Happy New Year and I've never forgotten how to say it, the only piece of Mandarin that I know.

Well spotted.Mandarin would be "gong xi fa cai"
Still, useful if you're going to Hong Kong I suppose.
