A Christmas Story

November 18th - December 29th

By Philip Grecian, based on the motion picture “A Christmas Story” written by Gene Shepherd, Leigh Brown, and Bar Clark; and on the book “In God We Trust, All Others Pay Cash” by Gene Shepherd.

Set in the 1940s, this story follows 9-year-old Ralphie Parker and his quest for the Holy Grail of Christmas gifts—an official Red Ryder carbine-action 200-shot Range Model air rifle. Rebuffed at every turn, Ralphie plots numerous schemes to achieve his heart’s desire. Will his Christmas dreams come true? Based on the beloved motion picture, this nostalgic tale of childish yearning is perfect for the whole family.
