One Christmas tradition in England is having people put on masks and perform Christmas Plays. This is called mumming and has been done since the Middle Ages. A traditional dinner in England is eating roasted turkey and having Christmas pudding for desert. Christmas crackers with a silly joke and a paper crown that must be worn during dinner. Mince pies after Christmas pudding. I've never come across mumming.

The central characters were generally St George, the quack Doctor and the Turkish Knight. There was usually a battle between St George and the Turkish Knight in which one of them died. Then, along would come the Doctor who miraculously revives the dead man.
Mummering, also known as "jannying" or "mumming," originated in England and Ireland. It is a folk tradition where people dress up in disguises or costumes, often with masks and exaggerated accents, and go door-to-door singing, dancing, and entertaining their neighbors during the Christmas season. Mummering spread to other parts of the world, including Newfoundland and Labrador in Canada, where it remains popular.
