The Best Christmas Pageant Ever: The Musical is the story of the Herdmans, who are the worst kids in the history of the world. They lie, they steal, they bully other kids, and they smoke smelly cigars. There used to be only one place where you’d never see them—church. This all changes when Charlie Bradley brags that his Sunday school offers free snacks. All six of the Herdmans show up at church in search of pizza, cookies and Hawaiian Punch, and end up in the Christmas pageant. Charlie’s mom, Grace, is the novice director, who not only casts them in the show but, much to the dismay of the other kids, let’s them play all the leads. Grace instantly finds herself caught between two forces of nature—the Herdmans and Helen Armstrong, who speaks for all of the outraged citizens of the town. Grace has two choices: get rid of the Herdmans, or let them stay and risk being blamed for the worst pageant in the history of the world.

SAFETY in the Cabin!

Here’s what to expect at the Cabin on the Stage when you come to see the show:

1. Masks are a must. Being in an enclosed space with up to 250 people in the seats, we, as well as the State of Illinois, will require masks on every patron. This will be strictly enforced.
2. BEFORE YOUR ENTRANCE ON CAMPUS, or once you enter into the theatre, you are required to fill out this contact tracing survey and attest to your vaccination/testing status here. To paraphrase the form, RVC Covid regulations requires you attest that you have been vaccinated OR have had a negative Covid test within 7 days of the event you are attending.

Thank you for consideration of everyone when you join us at the Cabin!
