The Colony Playhouse will present six performances of “The Best Christmas Pageant Ever” on Dec. 9-11 and Dec. 16-18 at the Medical Center of Lewisville Grand Theater.
Evening shows will start at 7 p.m. Friday and Saturday both weekends, with a 3 p.m. matinee both Sundays. Tickets are $10 for adults, $8 for students and seniors, and can be purchased by visiting thecolonyplayhouse.org or calling 972-625-1726. Advance tickets cannot be purchased at MCL Grand.
In this hilarious tale, a couple struggling to put on a church Christmas pageant is faced with casting the Herdman kids, who are probably the most inventively awful kids in history. Through the course of the play, the Herdmans learn the true meaning of Christmas – and help the people around them to remember the heart of the season as well.
This delightful comedy is adapted from the best-selling book by Barbara Robinson. The performance at MCL Grand is directed by Martin Mussey and produced by special permission with Samuel French, Inc.

Medical Center of Lewisville reached a multi-year agreement with the city last year for naming rights at the center.
