THE BEST CHRISTMAS PAGEANT EVER: THE MUSICAL</h2>
<p dir="ltr" style="word-wrap: break-word;" class="">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 biting 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 are calling for reluctant director Grace Bradley to cancel the whole
thing. It's up to Bradley and the Reverend to help their community see the Christmas story and the Herdman kids through new eyes in this buoyant musical adaptation of the funny and touching holiday classic. Silent night? Not a chance. But sometimes a little
joyful noise is just right for Christmas. </p>

LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS</h2>
<p style="word-wrap: break-word;" class="">A deviously delicious Broadway and Hollywood sci-fi smash musical, <em style="word-wrap: break-word;" class="">Little Shop Of Horrors</em> has devoured the hearts of theatre goers for over 30 years. Howard Ashman and
Alan Menken (<em style="word-wrap: break-word;" class="">Disney's The Little Mermaid</em>, <em style="word-wrap: break-word;" class="">Beauty And The Beast</em>, and <em style="word-wrap: break-word;" class="">Aladdin</em>) are the creative geniuses behind
what has become one of the most popular shows in the world. The meek floral assistant Seymour Krelborn stumbles across a new breed of plant he names "Audrey II" - after his coworker crush. This foul-mouthed, R&B-singing carnivore promises unending fame and
fortune to the down and out Krelborn as long as he keeps feeding it, BLOOD. Over time, though, Seymour discovers Audrey II's out of this world origins and intent towards global domination!</p>
