BIBLICAL DRAMAS
Sir,-I should like to pay a small tribute to the Children’s Nativity Play broadcast on Sunday, December 8, from 4YA by Mr. A. K. Smith and the Hanover Street Baptist Young Worshippers’ League. This performance was the fourth in a series of Biblical dramas acted by these children-dramas which are arousing interest all over the country. The Nativity Play was a skilful reconstruction of the moving story of Christ’s birth, and the author made the most of the facts and succeeded in capturing the historical atmosphere of the period. The children are to be congratulated on their performance which must have been an inspiration to adults too, who were fortunate enough to be listening in. A beautiful interpretation of the joyful message of Christmas!
