SPRING VALLEY, WI – “The Best Christmas Pageant ever” just completed a six-performance engagement at the Spring Valley Stagehands Theatre and it was the best little play with a really large cast!
The play is a delightful fictional story based on the 1972 children’s book by Barbara Robinson, which tells about a group of mischievous kids (the Herdmans). The Herdmans are six siblings who have a reputation for being the worst kids in the world. However, when they take over the local church pageant during the holidays, they just might teach a shocked community the true meaning of Christmas.
The Stagehands community theater group has staged “The Best Christmas Pageant ever” three times in the past, the last one was in 2014 and prior to that in 2004 and one other. This 2024 production of the play was directed by Stagehands veteran Liz Erickson and produced in agreement with the Concord Theatricals Corp.
