Based on the well-loved book by Barbara Robinson, The Best Christmas Pageant Ever is a hilarious play that tells the story of the Herdmans, the worst kids in town, who decide to audition for the Christmas pageant. As they volunteer for the major roles, decide that Herod is the hero, and turn the classroom upside down, the new director is sure the pageant is ruined. Everything goes horribly wrong, yet when the dust settles everyone agrees it was the best Christmas pageant EVER.

The Best Christmas Pageant Ever is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French, Inc. www.concordtheatricals.com

Performances on Friday and Saturday, December 15 and 16 at 7 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday December 16 and 17 at 2 p.m.
