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?

There are certain noises/sounds/smells you don't forget
This has all three.
When our school did the nativity I was cast as a tree. The good looking and intelligent ones got the good roles, the usual, but our headteacher decided to give the role of Jesus to the school retard (out of sympathy probably, not trying to say Jesus was a spastic).
Ah those were the days.
Anyway, we were all gathered on stage and it was going well, then I heard a strange rumbling noise coming from Jesus, then a dodgy smell drifted over. I looked down and Jesus had shit himself during the play!
A good actor would have carried on, but me and my immature mates decided to shout out "Jesus has had a dump!" to all the parents and the priest from the local parish. They were not impressed.
Funnily enough i didn't get a part in the next performance, and the retard was never cast again either.
