Plays and pageants: The holidays really begin at the Wade James Theatre in Edmonds on Sunday, as The Driftwood Players present the first of three holiday shows.
The first show is “The Best Christmas Pageant Ever,” which tells the story of an almost-doomed Christmas when the poorly behaved children of the Herdman family are cast in the annual Christmas pageant. Shows are at 8 p.m. Mondays and Tuesdays and 7 p.m. Sundays Dec. 7-16. $10 for the show and dessert buffet.
Next up is “The Eight Reindeer Monologues,” a hilarious and sometimes obscene behind-the-scenes peek into the lives of Santa’s famous eight reindeer as they confess how things really go down at the North Pole when the sleigh ride is over. Not for easily offended elves. Midnight at Fridays and Saturdays Dec. 12-20. $5.
Finally, audiences can delight during “Erwilian,” an ensemble that brings age-old and rarely performed holiday tunes from around the world on an assemblage of ancient and one-of-a-kind instruments. The music begins at 7 p.m. Dec. 21. $20.
All shows are at the Wade James Theatre, 950 Main St., Edmonds. For more information or tickets call 425-774-9600 or visit www.driftwoodplayers.com.
