Every year during the holidays, from Radio City Music Hall to the Hollywood Bowl, the stars come out to bring us some of the glitziest entertainment of the year. BIFF: That's right, Christine! But tonight, our cameras go to a surprising location— a little town that puts on a humble, but special Christmas pageant. CHRISTINE: It's a Christmas tradition; a play that has been produced without fail for the last 49 years. But this year, there's a fascinating twist.

I'm here in the town of Centerton, where for the last 49 years, this little village has quietly been producing a beloved Christmas play. But, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of their annual pageant, they seem to be shooting for the stars. That's right, Centerton has secured the services of none other than legendary stage and screen director, Cecil V. DeVille! BIFF: How did they get Mr. DeVille?! STORMIE: Well, I can report that they were able to nab Mr. DeVille because, get this, he grew up in Centerton and as a boy, he himself acted in this play! It appears you CAN go home again! BIFF: A journey back to his roots! CHRISTINE: What a heart-warming story! STORMIE: And DeVille apparently has big plans for this "humble" production. STORMIE: Excuse me, are you part of the cast for the Christmas play? BAILEY: Yes ma'am, every year for the last three years! STORMIE: You look like you're very excited! TAYLOR: We are—but we've gotta run. We can't be late! It's all about to begin! t 2 42 STORMIE (cont.): " . . . but to celebrate . . .
