STORY
The six Herdman children are “absolutely the worst kids in the history of the world.” They lie and steal and smoke cigars. They even burned down Fred Shoemaker’s old toolhouse. And now they’re taking over the church Christmas pageant.
The devilish Herdmans have never heard the Christmas story before, and they don’t know anything about shepherds or Wise Men, so they’re planning on a gift to the infant that means much more than gold, frankincense, and myrrh: the ham from their Christmas basket.
The Best Christmas Pageant Ever is a holiday comedy classic, with its lively, outrageous, and ultimately delightful spin on Christmas festivities. Great fun for the entire family!
