'The White Boys' to hit Island streets this December
A festive Manx tradition, which dates back 200 years, is being 'kept alive' by people on the Isle of Man.
The White Boys - a 'mumming' play - has been performed on streets here since the 19th century.
It doesn't have a set script but always includes a number of key elements: saints, a fight, a death, a resurrection thanks to 'the Doctor' and a happy ending.
