Historic Penn Center presented its annual Nativity Scene on Sunday, Dec. 16, in the Frissell Community House.&nbsp;According to Penn’s website, the play was originally called Penn School’s Mystery Play and performed at the center’s Darrah Hall. The play ran uninterrupted from 1916 to 1953.&nbsp;The current adaptation was the creation of the late Agnes C. Sherman, who coordinated the production from 1971 through 1997.
