Just in time for the holidays, First Presbyterian Theater presents The Best Christmas Pageant Ever, a holiday comedy based on the best-selling novel by Mary Robinson. 

A widely beloved Christmas tale, warm and incredibly funny, The Best Christmas Pageant Ever follows the hijinks of the Herdman siblings, or “the worst kids in the history of the world.” The siblings, who have never heard the Christmas story before, take over the annual Christmas pageant and start to reimagine it in their own way. 

The large cast and age range make this show a community favorite, in which a varied, multigenerational group of performers can come together. 

The plays continue Dec. 16-18 at First Presbyterian Church in downtown Fort Wayne.
