The Best Christmas Pageant Ever

In this hilarious Christmas tale, 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 with the Christmas story head on!

"An American classic."-- McCall's Magazine

"One of the best Christmas stories ever-- and certainly one of the funniest."-- The Seattle Times

This delightful comedy is adapted from the best selling book and the only story ever to run twice in McCall's Magazine.

Colonial Playhouse is located at Ridley and Magnolia Avenues in Aldan (522 West Magnolia Ave.), one block off of Oak Avenue and a five-minute walk from the Primos station of SEPTA’s Media/Elwyn (formerly R3) rail line.
