What Is 'The Best Christmas Pageant Ever' About?
Based on the Barbara Robinson novel of the same name, the movie follows Greer's Grace Bradley, who is responsible for her church’s annual Christmas pageant. Although it wasn't her number one choice, Grace is forced to deal with the roughest kids in town, when all six of the Herdman children join the production’s ensemble, but despite all the stress and hassle caused by the inconvenience, Grace manages to pull off her own Christmas miracle. The rest of the cast includes Lauren Graham (Gilmore Girls), Molly Belle Wright (True Spirit), Matthew Lamb (High Potential), Beatrice Schneider (Tales from the Void), Essek Moore (Christmas in Alaska), Kynlee Heiman (All Saints' Day), Kirk B.R.

An official synopsis for The Best Christmas Pageant Ever reads:
"The Herdmans are absolutely the worst kids in the history of the world. They lie, they steal, they bully…and now they’ve hijacked the town Christmas pageant. Directed by Dallas Jenkins (“The Chosen”) and based on the popular book by Barbara Robinson — a #1 New York Times Best Seller on the Children’s list and international bestseller — THE BEST CHRISTMAS PAGEANT EVER follows six siblings who sneak into church searching for snacks and walk away with the lead roles in the town pageant. Grace (Judy Greer) is directing the performance for the very first time, but she and her daughter Beth (Molly Belle Wright) and husband Bob (Pete Holmes) are in over their heads, especially against a town that wants them to kick the Herdmans out. But the play’s mischievous stars might unwittingly teach a community the true meaning of Christmas. Featuring Lauren Graham. Screenplay by Ryan Swanson and Platte F. Clark & Darin McDaniel."
