The show will run Dec. 4-7 and 11-14 at the Staunton theater.
The performance will be offered Thursday-Saturday at 7 p.m. and on Sundays at 3 p.m.
The musical adaptation of the holiday classic is both funny and touching.
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 offer rewrites.
Soon, everyone is calling for reluctant director Grace Bradley to cancel the whole thing. It’s up to the Bradley to help the community see the Christmas story and the Herdman kids through new eyes.
