The Flint Street Nativity by Tim Firth

Mizzis Horrocks' class of seven year olds is about to perform their nativity play at Flint Street Junior School for the proud mums and dads - and the occasional social worker. Squabbles arise when Gabriel wants to play Mary, the Star grumbles that he's not a proper star like they have at NASA and then the stick insect escapes . . . . .

"Tim Firth's study of infant power-politics is less a cute, end-of-term entertainment than a kindergarten version of The Godfather . . . _The Guardian_​​​​
