What is the Plot of The Best Christmas Pageant Ever?
The Best Christmas Pageant Ever revolves around the Herdman children, six siblings notorious for their mischief and troublemaking. Known as the worst kids in town, the Herdmans are feared and avoided by their peers and neighbors.

The Herdmans, who have never heard the Christmas story before, bring their unfiltered and raw perspectives to the roles of Mary, Joseph, the Wise Men, and the Angel of the Lord.
