The Best Christmas Pageant Ever: The Musical Book & Lyrics by Jahnna Beecham, Music & Lyrics by Malcolm Hillgartner, Based on the Play by Barbara Robinson

The Herdmans are the worst kids in the history of the world–so when they crash Sunday school and demand parts in the Christmas pageant, the whole town panics. There’s not supposed to be biting or cigar-smoking in Bethlehem, and while these kids have never even heard the Christmas story, they definitely have rewrites! Soon, everyone is calling for reluctant director Grace Bradley to cancel the whole thing. It’s up to the Bradleys and the Reverend to help their community see the Christmas story and the Herdman kids through new eyes in this buoyant musical adaptation of the funny and touching holiday classic. A JV version of this musical is also available.

One Christmas Eve wraps the joys and sorrows of the season into one festive package.
