The Best Christmas Pageant Ever!
Written by Barbara Robinson I Directed by Ellen Fenster-Gharib

Get ready to laugh, gasp, and be swept up in holiday cheer with The Best Christmas Pageant Ever!

Based on the bestselling young adult novel by Barbara Robinson, this beloved classic comes with a fresh twist: in our adaptation, two dads take on the challenge of putting on the local holiday pageant at their local non-denominational church.

Things get wildly out of hand when the notorious Herdman kids—the "worst kids in history"—somehow land the lead roles. With their hilariously disruptive antics and surprising moments of heart, the Herdmans bring new energy (and chaos) to the Christmas story.

This festive comedy celebrates family, togetherness, and the joy of holiday traditions. Whether you're with friends, family, or a group, this show guarantees laughter, warmth, and unforgettable moments.

Age Recommendation: 5+
Themes: Family, Holiday, Comedy, LGBTQ+
