ABOUT THE SHOW
In this hilarious Christmas classic, a couple struggling to put on a church Christmas pageant is faced with casting the Herdman kids – probably the most inventively awful kids in history. You won't believe the mayhem – and the fun – when the Herdmans collide head-on with the story of Christmas!
This delightful show is adapted from the bestselling Young Adult book, and has become a holiday staple for groups across the United States. The crowd-pleasing comedy features great roles for children and adults, a few favorite Christmas Carols, and lots of laughs!
The Best Christmas Pageant Ever
is presented through special arrangement with Concord Theatricals.
PPP is supported, in part, by a grant from the Delaware Division of the Arts, a state agency, in partnership with the National Endowment for the Arts. The Division of the Arts promotes Delaware arts events on www.DelawareScene.com
