Description:

Kids ages 9-15 years old are invited to audition for "The Best Christmas Pageant Ever" The Musical. Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: 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 fighting or cigar-smoking in Bethlehem, and while these kids have never even heard the Christmas story, they definitely have rewrites! Soon everyone from the terrified pint-sized shepherds to the furious church ladies is calling for first-time director Grace to fire the Herdmans. But it's up to Grace and the Reverend to help their community see the Christmas story and the Herdman kids through new eyes. This musical is by Jahanna Beecham and Malcolm Hilgartner, based on the book by Barbara Robinson. Additional info: Actors should prepare a vocal solo of 16-32 measures of a song of their choice that is upbeat, positive, and appropriate for all ages. Bring sheet music, an accompanist will be provided. There may be a reading from the script which will be provided. Performance dates are December 6-8 and 13-15. See the attachment for the production schedule. If interested, please apply.
