He is born. thespians present 14th century nativity play All Seniors who took English 7 are familiar with miracle plays. These Elizabethan productions de- picted tamous biblical events. The York Nativity Play, performed by the Thespians for their annual Christmas program, portrays the birth ot Christ. Writ- ten in l34O, it is over six hundred years old and was produced every year tor over three hundred years. Miracle plays often cast wicked characters in comic roles, and thus Herod became a comic egotist. The rough, unsophisticated humor contrasted with the splendor ot the angels and the sensitive presenta- tion of the nativity.
