Christmas play
Seasonal stage production
A Christmas play is a theatrical performance with Christmas themes, typically staged during the holiday season.
School Christmas plays often feature nativity scenes or holiday stories, with children cast as shepherds, angels, and wise men: My daughter is a sheep in the Christmas play this year.
Churches and community theaters also mount Christmas plays, ranging from traditional pageants to contemporary comedies.
