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?

Grass skirt....I was at primary school in the 1950s, when nativity plays were traditional, but the only time I can remember appearing in a nativity play I was playing a Hawaiian girl and wearing a swimsuit and a grass skirt. So if there's anyone out there who went to John Selden Primary School in Durrington, West Sussex in the 1950s, can they please tell me what I was doing (assuming it isn't a weird acid flashback).

.Oh man I was about to make a post about a grass skirt, I thought you were a mind thief.
We did "Charlie and the chocolate factory" and I was an Oompa loompa. All the other children had crepe paper skirts - I wore an absolutely massive grass skirt that my parents had brought back from the tropics when they moved to England. All the other children were horible about it and even the teacher said something along the lines of "FFS why can't you just be normal?"
For some reason in this production the oompa loompas followed Augustus Gloop into the pipe, and it proably took ten minutes for me to be pulled out of the other side, bright red and screaming, when me and my hoola girl skirt got stuck.
