What's it about?

COMEDIC FAMILY MUSICAL 

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 have rewrites!

Soon everyone from the 
terrified pint-sized shepherds to the furious church ladies is calling for 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 in this animated 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.
