Laughs abound in the bestselling Christmas classic The Best Little Christmas Pageant Ever that has been adapted to great acclaim by Spirit of Newfoundland Productions. This year things will be different as we reflect the pandemic and make this “The Best Little COVID Christmas Pageant Ever”. The show follows the outrageous shenanigans of the Herdman siblings, or “the worst kids in the history of the world.” The siblings take over the annual Christmas pageant in a hilarious yet heartwarming tale involving the Three Wise Men, a ham, scared shepherds, and six rowdy kids.
Followed by a Roaring 20’s Cabaret featuring Peter Halley & Shelley Neville as hosts with special guests such as Nathalie Noseworthy and Keith Power. Be sure to dress in your best 1920’s glorious glam as we say goodbye to 2020. Details
