Catch this Clip from A Christmas Story

The show is outloud fun and wacky. Reserve your tickets now.

Ralphie accidently says the "F- blank - blank -blank" word, and imagines a world of him becoming blind becuase his parents gave him Life Boyd soap to scrub out his mouth.


Don't miss the show.

You can reserve your seats cheap. Instead of paying $40 or more at other places you can pay $18 - $20 to reserve a seat to watch the show.

Plot Summary: Humorist Jean Shepherd's memoir of growing up in the midwest in the 1940s follows 9-year-old Ralphie Parker in his quest to get a genuine Red Ryder BB gun under the tree for Christmas. Ralphie pleads his case before his mother, his teacher and even Santa Claus himself at Higbee's Department Store. The consistent response: "You'll shoot your eye out!" All the elements from the beloved motion picture are here, including the family's temperamental exploding furnace; Scut Farkas, the school bully; the boys' experiment with a wet tongue on a cold lamppost; the Little Orphan Annie decoder pin; Ralphie's father winning a lamp shaped like a woman's leg in a net stocking; Ralphie's fantasy scenarios and more.

REVIEWS of The Play:


--"I have an unusual Christmas wish this year: I want fewer Christmas musicals going forward...In “A Christmas Story,” which is extremely faithful to the film."


--"The twangy tune finds Ralphie fantasizing about being a hero with his rifle. The best scene comes with the jazzy “You’ll Shoot Your Eye Out.”"
