Based on a book by Barbara Robinson"The Herdmans were the worst kids in the whole history of the world." So begins one of the most popular books ever written. This comedy is about the holiday pageant that's held at the school each year. This year, the director, Mrs. Armstrong, breaks her leg, and volunteer Grace Bradley finds herself directing the show. The Herdmans show up to audition after they hear that all the kids in the pageant get candy at rehearsal. Grace is forced to cast the Herdmans in leading roles. Chaos ensues, and the resolution that follows makes for one of the most hilarious and touching experiences you'll ever have in the theatre. The pageant that should be doomed to failure becomes a rich and human spirit and the ability in times of crisis to become bigger and better than we think we are. The Best Christmas Pageant Ever will truly make you laugh until you cry.
