Family & Kids


Now lying, stealing, and cheating their way onto the stage, the worst kids in the world are back for Stage One’s annual holiday classic, “The Best Christmas Pageant Ever!”

When the Herdman children attend church for the fi rst time, it’s because they’ve heard that there will be free snacks. Now they’ve bullied their way into being the stars of what was once a very traditional pageant, however, and are about to turn the whole production upside down! While the town watches what they expect to be the worst Christmas pageant ever, the least likely kids to ever grace a nativity scene show everyone what the true meaning of the season is about.

“The Best Christmas Pageant Ever!” is raucous and heartwarming fun for the whole family—regardless of whether that family leans towards the Herdman’s style of living or not. It’s a perfect opportunity to book a student matinee fi eld trip, or to go with family or friends.

Weekend public performances will be held November 24, December 8, and December 15 at 2 and 5 pm; the December 20 performances will be held at 10 am and noon. Performances are at the Kentucky Center, Bomhard Theater. Tickets run $19.75 per person, with group and military discounts available.

As the only residence still in existence west of the Appalachian Mountains to have sheltered Lewis and Clark, Historic Locust Grove is one of Kentucky’s fi nest monuments to history. The day after Thanksgiving, it will be open for an opportunity to explore the region’s heritage, both material and intangible.

On November 23, Locust Grove will operate during their regular working hours, 10 am-4:30 pm. Costumed demonstrators will be in the kitchen and woodshop for the majority of the day, in order to recreate a faithful impression of what life would have been like on the original plantation. Additionally, the museum store will be offering a 20% discount on all items in order to start the holiday season out right.

While shopping for the holidays, visitors can get a sense of Kentucky’s grand history. The home is a National Historic Landmark on 55 acres of the original 1790s farm, which has been host to not only Lewis and Clark, but also three US presidents: Monroe, Jackson, and Taylor. The famous Stephen Bishop, a slave, used Locust Grove as his base of operations for creating the most complete and accurate map of the period until modern survey techniques were applied in 1908.

Even better, all this history is included in the regular admissions price—$8 for general admission, $4 for children aged 6-12, and free for children under 6 and members.
