ABOUT THE SHOW

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.
