A Christmas Story

The Musical

BOOK BY JOSEPH ROBINETTE  MUSIC & LYRICS BY BENJ PASEK & JUSTIN PAUL BASED ON THE MOVIE "A CHRISTMAS STORY" AND "IN GOD WE TRUST: ALL OTHERS PAY CASH" DIRECTED BY NICK BOWLING One of the most watched and beloved Holiday movies ever made comes to life in a full-blown musical production on the Paramount stage. It’s the story of nine-year-old Ralphie Parker growing up in middle-America in the 1940s. With Christmas right around the corner, Ralphie has his bespectacled sights set on one thing – a Red Ryder BB Gun. But at every turn, the young daydreamer hears those five words that are the bane of his existence: “you’ll shoot your eye out.” It’s a story filled with laughs, dreams, warmth and family. A story filled with a department store Santa, a Leg Lamp, a Snow Suit and friends that will never leave your side – even if your tongue is stuck to a Flag Pole. The music is energetic, unforgettable and ranges from gentle ballads to full-on show-stopping numbers. The imagery takes you back to an easier time we often long for, but the message stays the same: family, friendship, love – the holidays are nothing without them. Bring your family and celebrate the holidays with the perfect feel-good musical for the season. Suggested Rating: PG. Out of respect for our patrons, children ages 2 and under are not permitted in the theater unless they attend a specific designated children’s show.
