The young people of Knox Presbyterian Church will present the
English version of 'Henri Gheon's Christmas in the Market Place
this Sunday evening at 8 p.m. in the church. It is the Nativity
story presented by a band -of strolling gypsy players and has,
since it was first performed by the Pilgrim Players of
Canterbury in 1943, become one of the most popular,, if not the '
most popular, of all Nativity plays. It has had thousands of
productions, both amateur and professional, in churches,
church -halls, theatres and schools, and has twice been staged in.
the Crypt of St. Paul's Cathedral. In his Translator's,Vote, Eric
Crozier wrote that he wanted to provide a version that would
do 'what the original certainly does-- bring the story of the
Nativity alive in all its majesty, and contrast the simple humours
of the gypsy family with their devout interpretation of the
greatest subjects'. Discussing the production are (left to right)'
