Nativity Play Brightens Cambridge Christmas Week
The Nativity play The Birth of Christ presented by the Children of Mary at Aquinas hall featured 24 speaking parts and about 100 participants. Miss Lillian Connolly’s angel role drew acclaim along with Miss Teresa V. Magruder as the Blessed Virgin and Miss Agnes Kelly in duets with Connolly. The boys’ orchestra led by Prof Charles H. Lehmiz and the minstrel girls under Miss Molly Sheehan received praise for music and dancing, with a full program of tableaux and carols before Herod’s scene and the final Magi visit.
