The Christmas villain

Children’s nativity plays, up and down the land, are blessed with many roles, allowing for a good number of children to take part.

Sometimes there are too many children for parts, so we might include a donkey, a cow and an underage bartender.

As a child, I have a vivid memory of being given the role of an Eskimo. I never thought to ask whether an Eskimo actually appears in the Christmas story, but I had an inkling that teachers were anxious to include every pupil.
