PARENTS have complained after the traditional Christmas nativity play was ditched at a Co Down primary school this year in favour of a cult adult show.

Instead of the usual stable scenes, youngsters took part in a version of the Rocky Horror show.

Eyebrows were raised as nine and ten-year-olds at St Mary's Primary in Newcastle vamped it up in the controversial cross-dressing extravaganza.

Staff said they had "no problem" with putting on the raunchy musical.

It was claimed that the highpoint of the performance saw two boys dressed in skirts embrace one another.
