The Blue Ridge Dinner Theatre will ring in this Christmas season with The Littlest Shepherd: A Musical Retelling of the Birth of Christ by R. Rex Stephenson and music by Emily Rose Tucker.

You know the story. "And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us." Well, most of them went, but they left the littlest shepherd to watch the sheep. What happened then?

The characters the littlest shepherd meets, the obstacles he must overcome, and the gift he is determined to give to Jesus combine in a production that speaks to the glad Christmas message and does so in an uplifting, heart-warming, and, often, humorous way.
