Tickets are on sale for Baton Rouge Little Theater’s production of The Best Christmas Pageant Ever, set for Thursdays through Sundays, Dec. 11-20, on the theater’s Main Stage, 7155 Florida Blvd.

Thursday, Friday and Saturday performances begin at 7:30 p.m. Sunday matinees begin at 2 p.m. There also will be an additional 2 p.m. matinee on Dec. 12.

The story is Barbara Robinson’s hilarious Christmas tale of a couple struggling to put on a church Christmas pageant. The couple is faced with casting the Herdman kids, probably the most inventively awful kids in history. What transpires is a story of love and acceptance, bringing to light the true meaning of “holiday spirit.”

Tickets are $22. Discount rates are available for groups of 10 or more. For tickets or more information, call (225) 924-6496 or visit http://www.brlt.org.
