Tala Cardoso and Dona Rimanishta who played goats in Mind the Manger
Donkey rides in to rescue play!
PARENTS attending the Holy Trinity School nativity play in Swiss Cottage were treated to a festive mince pie on arrival as they sat down to watch Mind the Manger, which centred on a clumsy donkey. Tzuki Kiyuna-chappell, aged seven, who played the loveable lead, rescued the production after illness kept the previous donkey home. Teachers praised Tzuki for stepping in, describing her as a “star”.The play went ahead without a hitch – apart from those scripted. “He trips over the tent and it falls over the kings,” explains Tzuki.
