RING IN THE HOLIDAYS WITH YOUR FRIENDS AT BFACT

After taking Christmas off in 2023, BFACT was back with our beloved Christmas shows in 2024. 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.

A LIVELY SHOW… FULL OF UPBEAT TUNES, THIS WINNING ADDITION TO THE HOLIDAY CANON MANAGES TO ALSO TOUCH THE HEART… THE TUNES MAKE A SWELL ADDITION.
